Description

Handbook of Latino/a Theologies explores the varied theological, ecclesiastical, spiritual, and cultural expressions associated with the term 'Latino/a or Hispanic theology.' There is no single definition of Hispanic/Latino theology, but rather a multiplicity of perspectives within the diverse Latino/a communities that articulate a distinctive and relevant Hispanic viewpoint. This collection of thirty-four essays surveys how Latinos/as understand and do theology within those varied contexts. It gives attention to the history, nature, sources, and development of Latinos/as theological expressions within the U.S. and their contribution to the overall theological discourse and to the individual groups that gave rise to them. Part I of the handbook presents essays on many traditional topics in Christian theology representative both of the individual authors and various beliefs found in Latino/a communities. Part II focuses on trends and contextual issues within the overall Hispanic/Latino theological conversation.

Why Latino/a Theology?
Scholars in religious studies and parishioners in the contemporary church in the United States face the reality and challenge of the varied theological, ecclesiastical, spiritual, and cultural expressions that come under the term “ Latino/a or Hispanic theology.” Hispanic theology can be defined as the distinct theologies that emerge out of the social and cultural contexts of Latino/a peoples, which, nonetheless, have some shared characteristics. These common traits make Latino/a theology a communal undertaking that is scholarly, pastoral, and organically con
