Converging on Culture: Theologians in Dialogue with Cultural Analysis and Criticism (AAR Reflection and Theory in the Study of Religion)
by Kathryn Tanner, Delwin Brown, Sheila Greeve Davaney
Theologians are increasingly looking to cultural analysis and criticism, rather than philosophy, as a dialogue partner for cross-disciplinary studies. This book explores the importance of this shift by bringing together scholars from a variety of theological perspectives to analyze different contemporary theories of culture and cultural movements. The essays here examine the theoretical relationship between theology and cultural studies and then discuss a series of controversial topics that cry out for theological reflection.

Boundaries of Our Habitations: Tradition and Theological Construction
by Delwin Brown
Brown's theory of tradition stands on its own as a significant contribution to the academic study of religions, but it also provides the framework for a challenging critique of contemporary American theologies--conservative, liberal, and radical -- and the basis for a novel understanding of the significance of the racial/ethnic, feminist, and class-identified theologies now emerging.
