Fifty years after the Second Vatican Council, controversy continues to surround this seminal event in Catholic Church history. Debates about Vatican II's legacy are intensifying whilst the challenges raised by our increasingly complex multi-religious, multi-secular society are becoming ever more pressing. In Interreligious Reading After Vatican II scholars from within and outside the Catholic tradition discuss and perform interreligious reading in the light of the Council. The volume focuses on two forms of study across faith traditions - Comparative Theology and Scriptural Reasoning. Contributors also consider the relationship between interreligious engagement and Receptive Ecumenism within the Church. The volume concludes with critically reflective responses from leading Catholic, Muslim and Jewish thinkers. Thought-provoking and timely, Interreligious Reading After Vatican II offers rich insights into the theory and practice of interreligious encounters, and the continuing ramifications of the Second Vatican Council for such encounters today.
