The Vietnam War and Theologies of Memory develops atheological analysis of the American war in Vietnam and constructsa Christian account of memory in relation to this tragic conflict. An elegantly written reflection of memory and forgiveness, thisunique work explores the ecclesial practice of memory in relationto the American war in Vietnam Questions how and why we choose to remember atrocity, and askswhether it is ever ethical to simply forget Explores the theological categories of time and eternity, andthe ideas of thinkers including Aquinas, Augustine, and Barth Reveals broader insights about history, memory, andredemption Resonates beyond the field of theological inquiry by offering abroader analysis of war entirely relevant to our time
