The theodicy of Peter Taylor Forsyth: a "crucial" justification of the ways of God to man
No full textThis study seeks to describe the theodicy of Scottish theologian Peter Taylor Forsyth. We begin by making some preliminary comments concerning Forsyth’s conception of reality and his understanding of evil. We then examine Forsyth’s methodology of the theologia crucis, which he utilises in his justification of God. Forsyth sees a crucial event taking place at the Cross, “the self-justification of God”, one which constitutes the basis for all human attempts to justify God. We explore his multi-faceted understanding of this event, and how it leads to two outcomes which form the main thrusts of his theodicy. In Chapters 3 and 4, we look at the first such outcome, which is that God moves the world inexorably towards his glorious telos. We also consider here the significance of this first outcome for Forsyth’s theodicy, which is that it imparts to this theodicy a strongly teleological and historical nature. In Chapters 5 and 6, we consider the second outcome of God’s self-justification. This is the revelation that God suffered incomparably in the event of the Cross. We draw out two major implications of this for Forsyth’s theodicy, based upon the idea that God is the chief sufferer and giver in our battle against sin, and the possibility that Christ might serve as our model of faith in times of suffering. We turn, in our final two chapters, to examine Forsyth’s view on the origin of both sin and suffering, his understanding of the God-world relationship, and the significance of these for his theodicy. We conclude that Forsyth’s justification of God constitutes a robust and comprehensive response to the problem of evil, possibly rendering a valuable service to the task of Christian theodicy through its ability to integrate insights from what has hitherto been considered different approaches to the issue
Peter Taylor, 11th Annual ODU Literary Festival
No full textPeter Taylor is the author of two novels, A Woman of Means (1950) and A Summons to Memphis, which in 1986 won both the Pulitzer Prize and, in Paris, the $50,000 Ritz Hemingway prize for English Literature. Best known as a short story writer, he has published seven books of short stories, beginning with A Long Fourth and Other Stories (1948) and including The Old Forest and Other Stories, which won the P.E.N./Faulkner Award in 1986. Nine stories of his appeared in the annual Best American Short Stories, and six stories appeared in the O. Henry Prize collections. He has been described as a Southern writer in the tradition of William Faulkner and Flannery O\u27Connor and one of the most accomplished short-story writers of our time. His work has also been described as outwardly simple but psychologically complex and powerful, and under the surface of events in the regions he knows best the author discloses the universal longings of the human heart. As a dramatist, he is the author of Tennessee Day in St. Louis (1957), Presences: Seven Dramatic Pieces (1973) and A Stand in the Mountains (1985). In 1983 he retired from the University of Virginia, though he still divides his time between Charlottesville and Key West, Florida. In 1982 he was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters
