NEW ! For info on Trinity Term Lectures & Seminars click here
ASSIGNMENTS
In preparation for the examination you have to write 4 internal essays. Details about assignments are available here
READING
In addition to reading for assignments it is good to read at least one or two books from the titles listed in the bibliography, perhaps one single volume ethic (e.g. Hauerwas, Verhey or O'Donovan) and one more textbook approach (e.g Attwood, Grenz, Holmgren, or May).
Good introductory articles are:
- Professor Nigel Biggar: "Ethics", Blackwell Encyclopedia, pp164-83.
- Archbishop Rowan Williams' "Making Moral Decisions" in Gill, Cambridge Companion, pp3-15.
- Professor Oliver O'Donovan's "Christian Moral Reasoning" in the IVP New Dictionary, pp122-7.
