About the Author: Trevor Greenfield
I read for my first degree in Religious Studies and English at Bishop Otter College, Chichester and then went to Sussex University to read for an MA in English Literature. I returned to Chichester to read for an MA in Religious Studies and taught there as an Associate Lecturer for four years. I have taught for the Open University for six years.
Romanticism, Marxism, pre and post war German theology, non-realism and the nineteen sixties death of God movement, and now many contemporary writers around the world- they have all reshaped our ideas about God, giving it the rich diversity of experience and expression it comprises today. Tracing the history of the key idea in Western thought from its origins through to the present day, this is the story of the intellectual journey that remade God in the image of man, so that he might become one of us.
