A scholarly volume that reflects the rich diversity of Anglican theology

With contributions from an international panel of writers, Twentieth-Century Anglican Theologians offers a wide-ranging view that presents a survey of over twenty diverse Anglican thinkers. The book explores well-known figures including William Temple, Austin Farrer, Donald MacKinnon, and John A.T. Robinson. These theologians are set in a wider context alongside others from India, China, Australia, Ghana, and elsewhere. Notably, the subjects include a number of women from Evelyn Underhill, the first woman to teach the clergy of the Church of England, to Esther Mombo, a major contemporary Anglican figure, from Kenya.

The book reflects the rich diversity of Anglicanism, suggesting the ongoing vitality of this religious tradition. This important book:

- Contains information on a number of prominent women Anglican thinkers
- Includes contributions from experts from around the world
- Presents material on both familiar figures and others that are unjustly little known

Written for students and teachers of Anglicanism, Anglican clergy, and ecumenical colleagues, Twentieth-Century Anglican Theologians is the first book to reflect the diversity of the Anglican tradition by considering its global theological representatives.
