Description
In hope, Christian faith reconfigures the shape of what is familiar in order to pattern the contours of God's promised future.
In this process, the present is continuously re-shaped by ventures of hopeful and expectant living.
In art, this same poetic interplay between past, present and future takes specific concrete forms, furnishing vital resources for sustaining an imaginative ecology of hope. This volume attends to the contributions that architecture, drama, literature, music and painting can make, as artists trace patterns of promise, resisting the finality of modernity's despairing visions and generating hopeful living in a present which, although marked by sin and death, is grasped imaginatively as already pregnant with future.
