Against Yale

[Hermeneutics | Link | Print]

Milbank contrasts de Lubac's advocacy of patristic and medieval hermeneutics, which insists that the allegorical fulfills and completes the literal, with the Yale school, which he sees as living in "the no-man's land of 'history-like narrative' which at once abolishes real history and ignores the essential allegorical underpinning of Christian doctrine."
