Thanks for this. Do you have any idea when his next book will be published?
His next book is a (new) translation of Erich Przywara's seminal work, Analogia Entis. It should be released next spring in coordination with the conference in Washington, D.C. on the doctrine of analogy.
He also has a book coming out next year (hopefully) entitled The Christian Interruption, which I think will really unpack the way he veiws Christian theology vis a vis ancient and modern philosophy. His excellent article "Christ and Nothing" is probably a microcosm of this book.
Thanks for this, David. This is most helpful.
That's quite a list - maybe we should call him David Bentley Harticle!
Thanks for this list. And why oh why do I find such delicious puns as a. steward's comment above so awesome?
Hey, I believe the new book is actually entitled The Christian Revolution.
An even longer list of his articles and book reviews is available on Wikipedia.
The forthcoming book is indeed titled "The Christian Revolution".
I am glad to meet another fan of David Hart. Ihave been his friend since 1989.
He is indeed a pleasure to learn from-and occasionally to disagree with.
Almost all of the articles listed,as well as others from Touchstone, The New Atlantis, The New Criterion,and elsewhere,are included in his new anthology, In the Aftermath:Provocations and Laments,which Ireccomend as a delightful,sometimes acerbic anthology.
