요약 : What it means to love the neighbor is a central concern in Christian thought. It is equally central to Christian practice, to discipleship. In the realm of ethics, theory and practice are not separate matters: they are necessarily, inextricably linked. There is a perceived gap, however, between the theory and practice of Christian neighbor love, which this study seeks to explore.
초록/해제  
요약 : A close reading of specific texts serves to excavate and examine the theological groundings and ethical organization of two dominant, divergent understandings of neighbor love. The dissertation considers Thomas Aquinas's articulation of caritas as found in his Summa Theologiae and a broadly held notion of agape as developed through the work of Anders Nygren and Gene Outka. Textual analysis of these accounts continues with a comparison of their underlying theological concerns and a consideration of the implications of their differences for engaged expressions of Christian love. This latter task of sketching implications leads to broadening out from the texts themselves in order to suggest the resources each account may bring—and the pitfalls to which each may be vulnerable—in conversation with experience. This analysis draws on the work of Sharon Welch and her criteria for assessing the adequacy of theories for and in practice. A consideration of caritas and agape accounts of Christian love of neighbor through that lens suggests issues the theories may need to address in order to support engagement more effectively.
