Summary Drawing on recent understandings of materiality and innovative readings of Augustine of Hippo, Mechthild of Magdeburg, Jurgen Moltmann, and Elisabeth Moltmann-Wendel, this text crafts a material trinitarian theology that reorients theology from presumptions about the immateriality of the Trinity toward the places where the Trinity really matters--material bodies in historical contexts and the intersecting ways political and theological power structures normalize and marginalize bodies on the basis of material difference.
Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 199-217) and index.
Contents Introduction: Trinitarian theologies and the elision of material bodies -- Possibilities of a material trinitarian theology -- Knowing the Trinity: Augustine's material epistemology in the Trinity -- Desiring divine and human bodies in Mechthild of Magdeburg's the flowing light of the godhead -- Trinitarian politics in Moltmann and Moltmann-Wendel -- Following the cracks of trinitarian theology -- Epistemology, ontology, ethics, and politics of the material Trinity -- The terms of trinitarian theology.
