Alan Richardson: Reappraising the life and work of a twentieth-century Christian theologian, cleric and educatorTools Root, Terry (2020) Alan Richardson: Reappraising the life and work of a twentieth-century Christian theologian, cleric and educator. PhD thesis, University of Nottingham.
AbstractThis thesis reappraises the life and work of Alan Richardson (1905 – 1975) Anglican theologian, ecumenist and educator in the context of theological and ecclesiological developments in the middle third of the twentieth century. This is the first study of this well-known figure in twentieth-century theology since his death in 1975. Appraising his work the thesis questions why a muchpublished theological author, broadcaster and teacher whose clerical career included a leading role in the SCM, and in post-war ecumenical discussion, a canonry at Durham, a professorship at Nottingham and the deanery of York, should have disappeared from both academic and historical view after his death.
