Zusammenfassung:Gillian Rose (1947-1995) was an original and pugnacious thinker, whose work draws together Continental philosophy, sociology, modern/post-modern Jewish and Christian reflection on ethics. This book contains her thoughts, in context of the church.. - Gillian Rose (1947-1995) was a highly original, enigmatic and pugnacious thinker, whose work draws together Continental philosophy, sociology, modern/post-modern Jewish and Christian reflection on ethics. She was also, famously, a convert to Christianity, baptised into the Church of England on her deathbed, from Judaism. She has been a major influence on many contemporary thinkers, not least on the thought of the Archbishop Rowan Williams. Her writings are teasingly poetic, often forbiddingly difficult, and yet at the same time vividly accessible, at any rate through her widely praised memoir, "Love's Work". Here, two Church of England priests write about Rose's thought as it relates to the future of the church she eventually joined. A significant philosopher of this century, they believe her thinking implicitly points towards a new form of Christian self-understanding.
