Description
(Text)
in Kooperation mit UWC Press (Südafrika) und Regnum Books (England)This inspiring collection of 72 critical and creative contributions honoring the life and work of Desmond Mpilo Tutu comprises a rich and diverse array of reflections on the ecumenical global struggle against Apartheid, and Archbishop Tutu's role therein, as a political priest, prophet and intellectual. The encounters with »the Arch« and his work has shaped ongoing faith-based, activist and academic pursuits for justice, peace and dignity. Anyone familiar with his outstanding contributions to the promotion of justice, dignity and peace, will know that a hallmark of Desmond Tutu's celebrated style is his use of narrative and real-life stories. In honor of his unique and remarkable example, the contributions in this book combine oral history and written history paradigms, as well as sociological, philosophical and theological approaches. While the book is meant to be a memorial recollection of encounters with the Arch, the hope is that these recollections will continue to inspire collective struggles and hopes for justice, peace and dignity.
