""As an admirer of Professor Kort's other well-known, indeed groundbreaking works on biblical interpretations and literary theory, I was partly but still not fully prepared for the originality of his interpretation of theological positions in terms of discourse analysis and rhetorical analysis.

He identifies the traditional or putative claims of theological power and meaning---sources, referents, and patterns or structures--- as distractions from or even concealments of the discursive situation in which theologies arise. Kort first describes the dynamics of difference and conflicts constituted by theologies and the importance of power for opposing theologies. He provides a model that demonstrates why differences and conflicts, rather than occasional or peripheral effects of theology, are required as central causes. He then applies the analysis and model in the task of reading theologies of more than a dozen modern and contemporary figures. In his conclusion, Kort returns to the cultural situation he sketched at the beginning, one that creates the conditions for the study and that is often called ""postmodern."" Kort calls it ""a culture of scripture and belief,"" and he discusses prospects for theology in a culture not characterized by the fact and certainty.
