Werner G. Jeanrond approaches hope from the perspective of a theology of love. He distinguishes human hopes from the hope which God has given to humanity. Jeanrond discusses the challenges of a Christian praxis of hope in todays world and invites both a new conversation on a future with God and a reassessment of the potential of hope for Christian discipleship.Jeanrond argues that memory is important for hope, and that nobody can hope for herself or himself alone. Hope thus invites personal, communal, political and global participation and transformation. Moreover, it gives rise to a powerful constellation of symbolic expressions, including judgement, heaven, hell, and purgatory, that call for ongoing interpretation. Ranging from radical hope and the hope for salvation, to the power of judgment and contemporary fears about the future of nations, humankind and the world, Jeanronds latest work offers a theological contribution to the multireligious conversation on hope, death and the human future in our universe.About the AuthorWerner G. Jeanrond is Professor of Systematic Theology in the University of Oslo, Norway. He has previously taught theology at Trinity College Dublin and the Universities of Lund, Glasgow and Oxford. His books and articles in theology and hermeneutics have been translated into many languages.
