Description

Oliver O'Donovan's final volume in his Ethics as Theology project explores the forward horizon that moral thinking must engage. He argues that moral experience is two-directional, looking both back at responsibility and forward at aims. In this third installment, O'Donovan reflects on questions that have engaged him throughout his career, providing a synoptic view of many of his main themes. The book offers a mature exploration of the relationship between moral thinking and Christian theology, shedding light on the Pauline triad of theological virtues and their implications for a definitive teleology. Through his characteristic ordered reflection, O'Donovan invites readers to engage with the forward horizon of moral thought, exploring its significance for our understanding of responsibility, aims, and the sovereignty of love.
