Description
Atonement by Eleonore Stump Eleonore Stump's ambitious study reconsiders the doctrine of atonement with philosophical care. Spanning centuries, theologians and philosophers have proposed diverse interpretations of Christ's sacrifice for humanity, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Stump examines these major interpretations, highlighting their shortcomings as an explanation for the solution to humanity's guilt and shame. In their place, she argues for a novel yet traditional understanding of the doctrine, drawing on Anselm's well-known account. This rich exploration covers key aspects of love, union, forgiveness, retribution, punishment, shared attention, mind-reading, empathy, and moral psychology. Through her nuanced analysis, Stump offers a fresh perspective on one of Christianity's defining doctrines, shedding light on its complexities and nuances.
