Description

The theological literature of the past 70 years reflects a steady interest in the theology of P.T. Forsyth (1848-1921), a Scottish Congregational theologian best known for anticipating the work of Karl Barth. This reference work provides an authoritative list of publications by and about Forsyth from 1886 to 1992. All but one of Forsyth's books lack indices, and this volume provides indices to the modern British editions of Forsyth's 22 major works. The bibliography is divided into two parts: works by Forsyth and works about him. Each part is sub-divided into sections by type of work, such as anthologies and collections, books, and book chapters. The indexes include a cumulative Scripture index, a cumulative index of names and cited works, and individual Scripture and name indexes for each of Forsyth's books. These separate book indexes also provide the table of contents for each work. The volume concludes with a title index of Forsyth's writings and a name index to the Forsyth bibliography.
