AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Christian theology has suffered in modern times from an inability to explain its traditional reliance on metaphor to an audience intellectually formed by empiricism. The author argues that what is needed is not a more "literal" theology, but a better understanding of metaphor. Soskice offers here an account of metaphor and religious language that not only illuminates the way in which theists speak of God, but also contributes to our understanding of the workings of metaphor in scientific theory and other disciplines.Soskice, Janet Martin is the author of 'Metaphor and Religious Language' with ISBN 9780198249825 and ISBN 0198249829.
