| Riassunto: | This collection offers the first book-length engagement with Werner G. Jeanrond’s theological thinking, spanning from hermeneutics through systematic theology to politics . More than twenty renowned scholars with a global reach offer interpretations, interventions, and inspirations sparked by Jeanrond’s theology. Together, they take Jeanrond’s lecture on “The Problem of the Theological Starting Point” as a starting point to tackle one of Jeanrond’s key questions: ‘How can theological thought begin today, in the midst of a confusing plurality of methods?’ The wager of this collection is that this question can only be asked and answered in a dialogue that engages scholars critically and self-critically with each other. Tackling the problem of the starting point, then, implies a vision for the vocation of theology that cannot hide behind clear-cut answers. In Jeanrond’s words: ‘Because God has begun a relationship with this world, theology must do the same without fear of compromising itself in this process’.
