Logos offering depth and breadth
As an exercise prompted by another thread I decide to do a "neutral" analysis of Logos offerings. My method is simplistic:
- take the list of 20th century theologians on the English wikipedia
- highlight each author who is represented by at least an essay in Logos
- not being able to accept who wasn't in the wikipedia list, add my own favorites (off the top of my head) clearly marked, at the end of the list. I kept my list shorter than wikipedia's
- gripe that the list got doubled spaced when I copied it over. {Thank Rosie for telling me how to fix it]

Here are some additional important ones. It's hard for me to tell who is represented by at least an essay in
Logos because I don't own all of Logos's offerings, but at least within
my library I've bolded the ones I can find.- Hans Urs von Balthasar

I suggest that if one is going to copy from Word that it first be saved in rtf to eliminate the "Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4" -- at least I think it would. The saved file can then be deleted.
It takes a little work, but it is possible to eliminate the double spacing problem. It happens to me all the time when I copy verses from a bible to the forum. What needs to be done is to go to the end of the line and <delete> which will make it all one line with the next. Then <shift-enter> will make it single spaced.

Best way to do it is use the Paste from Word button on the toolbar in the forum post editor. That eliminates all the Word junk. It might not get rid of double spacing if you entered each line as a separate paragraph, but in that case you can turn it in into a bulleted list which eliminates the inter-paragraph spacing.

It's interesting that I wasn't even aware of the existence of such an animal until you called it to my attention. I suppose that's what would be called tunnel vision. [:)]

Thank you Rosie - you've included several that I should have thought of, several its nice to be reminded of, and a few to figure out who they are.[:)]

I just realized I also included (at least) one that you already had on your list. [:$]

Found some more that I should have thought of, mentioned in the Table of Contents of The Modern Theologians: An Introduction to Christian Theology in the Twentieth Century, edited by David F. Ford (Blackwell, 1997), which, by the way, would be an excellent resource in its own right to have in Logos.
- Eberhard Jüngel
- Henri de Lubac
- Kwame Bediako
- John W. de Gruchy
- Rowan Williams
- Anthony C. Thiselton
- Lamin Sanneh
- Jeremy Begbie (one of his books coming in pre-pub)
And a few of others I've thought of:
- Kevin J. Vanhoozer
- Sallie McFague
- Paul Ricoeur (mostly a philosopher, but did write some theology as well, and they are intertwined anyway)
- Thomas F. Torrance
- Rosemary Radford Ruether
- Georges Florovsky
- Alfred Loisy
- Jacques Maritain
- Nicholas Wolterstorff
- Richard Swinburne (philosopher-theologian)
- Ernst Troeltsch
EDIT: Yet another:
- Miroslav Volf

Biography of Bonhoeffer, which tells an ignoramus like me much about his theology, is available on Vyrso. so can presumably be read in Logos
