Sound, synaesthesis, and spirituality -- Music and the body : Christian ambivalence -- Three theological aims and music unlimited -- Theology sung : hymns, psalms, and spiritual songs -- Singing as political act : theological soundings of justice -- Beyond "sacred" and "secular" -- Listening for the music of heaven and hearth -- Postlude : Music as theology, theology as music.
Subject: This volume offers a relatively brief but highly engaging essay on the major concerns and questions regarding Music as it intersects with theology--past and present. The author is a senior scholar in this field, one who is able to address in a clear and concise style the scope and contours of this question as it relates to theological inquiry and application. He sketches the nature and significance of the subject, the history of reflection, the current lines of inquiry, and his own contribution to the discussion. The scope of the essays cannot be exhaustive and completely interdisciplinary. Instead, the author opens the broader lines of discussion in suggestive, evocative, and programmatic ways.
