Transfigured not Conformed
Christian Ethics in a Hermeneutic Key Hans G. Ulrich, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany, Edited by Brian Brock, University of Aberdeen, UK The priority of God’s working and speaking orients the approach to Christian ethics in the work of Hans G. Ulrich, a German Lutheran theologian whose work is presented here for the first time for an English-speaking audience. Ulrich’s ethics affirm the lively presence of the living work of God in orienting the daily life of Christians. This presence enables members of the Church to live as creatures trusting in God’s promises, bearing witness in political and economic spheres, and trusting in life as a gift in response to bioethical issues.
Pauline Everett, Durham University, UK Pauline Everett explores surrogate motherhood employing Christian ethics within a relational framework. Everett's relationalism offers a more sophisticated ontology of the relationship between the self and the other and calls for various solutions in a surrogacy custody dispute.

The Polity of Christ
Studies on Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Chalcedonian Christology and Ethics Ulrik Nissen, Aarhus University, Denmark Ulrik Nissen addresses the difficulty that contemporary theology faces in seeking a way to maintain both all the shared goods we cherish as political beings, and the call for Christians to be a particular people in the world and bear witness to Christ. Nissen stresses that Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s Christological ethics allows for a polemical unity between the reality of the world and the reality of God, reconciled in the reality of Christ.

Beyond Kant and Nietzsche
The Spirit of Catholicism
Tracey Rowland, University of Notre Dame, Australia
In 1924, Karl Adam's classic work The Spirit of Catholicism caught the zeitgeist and was an international bestseller. Here is a very similar book but for our times.
The Munich Defence of Christian Humanism
4
A Relational Defence of Surrogate Motherhood
Vivian Boland OP
Tracey Rowland profiles the Christian Humanist ideas of six Catholic scholars who were based in Munich during the first half of the 20th century. They were all interested in defending and presenting a Christian Humanism in the aftermath of German Idealism and the anti-Christian humanism of Friedrich Nietzsche. They were seeking to offer hope to Christians during the darkest years of the Nazi regime and the post-World War II era of shame, guilt and reconstruction. This book provides the intellectual backstory to these scholars and their ideas.
Boland stresses the social, embodied character of Catholicism, crucial for understanding its particular form as well as what it offers to contemporary social and political challenges. The body of Christ in the world is the community of those who believe in Him and who, living by His Spirit, seek to witness to the fraternity, to the social friendship, which the world so keenly needs.
