Book Description
Excerpt from A History of the McCormick Theological Seminary of the Presbyterian Church Besides making use of these varied sources of information, the writer of this volume, having been for thirty-four years a professor in the institution at Chicago, and during the earlier period a member of the Board of Directors at New Albany, has been enabled in many cases to speak from personal knowl edge of the events and changes through which it has passed, and from intimate acquaintance with most of the men who have borne a prominent part in the making of its history. It has been thought that, in addition to the biographical sketches scattered here and there through the volume, the portraits of some of the men who have helped to make the Seminary would contribute to its interest. As a matter of course, a selection had to be made among both professors, directors and trustees. Some, therefore, will doubtless be missed from the list who would be deemed entitled to an equal place with the others in point of ability, zeal and faithful ser vice to the Seminary.

Broken Knowledge
Author: Younglae Kim
Publisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 9780761807803
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Broken Knowledge explores the impacts of the scientific and scholarly ideal of the modern university on theological education at Union Theological Seminary from 1887-1926. During this period, the marks of the modern university --specialization, the elective system, professionalization, and the empirical research orientation-- were incorporated into theological education. While vigorously implanting the new university's structural and functional patterns into theological education, the seminary and its theologians strove to bring theological discussions into the arena of secularized academia, to achieve independence from church dogmatism, to expand the scope of theological outlook in social domains, and to bind science and religion together. Without doubt, these efforts deserve due recognition. However, it is also undeniable that the current problems in theological education --the fragmentation of the theological curriculum and the loss of a holistic search for religious truth -- have to do with the seminary's adaptation to the new university ideal such as uncritical specialization and narrow modern epistemology at the turn of the century. This book explores how the decline of theology or the sacred in our modern world is connected with the dominance of modern scientific ways of knowing in our search for truth and the lack of holistic approaches to the issue of faith and knowledge. This book searches for the recovery of wholeness in theological education and higher learning in general.
