They include early Fathers like St. Irenaeus and St. Clement of Alexandria, and later writers like Calvin, Jonathan Edwards, Sergius Bulgakov, and Hans von Balthasar. An exploration of early thought on the topic, this book is an introduction to theological aesthetics. Besides examining the connection made between the Holy Spirit and beauty, Sherry expands on the theme by considering related topics such as divine glory, inspiration, and the eschatological character of beauty. He effectively brings together two areas of lively interest in contemporary Christianity: the theology of the Holy Spirit and theological aesthetics.
