Biography/History:
Klaus von Stosch is Schlegel-Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Bonn and head of the International Center for Comparative Theology and Social Issues. Lukas Wiesenhütter is a postdoctoral Research Fellow at the International Center for Comparative Theology and Social Issues at the University of Bonn. In his doctoral thesis, he examined Christian and Muslim approaches to the problem of evil.
Summary:
This volume engages traditional and contemporary approaches to the Divine attributes in Christian-Muslim dialogue. A particular focus lies on the attributes of omnipotence and omniscience, justice and mercy, as well as simplicity and divine action. Engaging these attributes comparatively, two questions are posed: How can these attributes be conceived today, and to what extent is a mutual learning across religious traditions possible? Thereby, a special focus is placed on the role of analytic philosophy. How do the philosopical ‘language games‘ used contribute to communicability across religions?
