Omschrijving
Drawing on the philosophy of C. S. Peirce, Robinson develops a ‘semiotic model’ of the Trinity and proposes a new theology of nature according to which the evolving cosmos may be understood as bearing ‘vestiges of the Trinity in creation’.
"In conclusion, God and the World of Signs is remarkably well written, clear in structure and thought, and impressive in scope. The reader can follow the ambitious argument from page one and is helped all the way through by careful introductions and summaries at the beginning and end of each chapter. (...) This is a unique contribution, especially in regard to the relationship between the theology of the Trinity and Peircean semiotics." Johanne Stubbe Teglbjærg Kristensen, University of Copenhagen, in: Philosophy, Theology, and the Sciences Vol. 3.1 (2016). "As systematically ambitious as the great systematic theologies of the past, resonating with the spirit of an Augustine or a Thomas Aquinas. ... Philosophers in the great traditions, East and West, will be pleased; systematic religious thinkers will discern one of their own; and even skeptics may be intrigued, even if in the end they can only shake their heads at the sheer chutzpah of it all!" Philip Clayton, Claremont School of Theology. "This is the first comprehensively Trinitarian reading of Peirce as well as the most thorough exploration yet published of Peircian semiotics for science-and-religion research." Gary Slater, Oxford University, in: American Journal of Theology and Philosophy
