- The research and writing of this book took over eight years from initial proposal to the proof-reading the manuscript. It analyses texts across five languages (excluding English) to define the evolution of Christian dogmatic practices from the 1st to the 21st centuries C.E. Ever attentive to theology as a cultural production, the argument is made complex (and thick) by its appeal to other fields of cultural production (history, philosophy, literature and film, for example). The methodology that emerges in Part Two of the work (and will guide the rest of the project) also draws on the biological sciences.
