Other research interests:

I have broad theological interests clustered in two main foci: (1) Fundamental theology: particularly theological epistemology after Kant, the relation of epistemology to ontology, the ontology of meaning and the nature of doctrine, as well as all aspects of theological method. (2) Dogmatic theology: Thomism (particularly its Wittgensteinian and Transcendental expressions), theological anthropology, the relationship of protology to soteriology, modern Christology and the work of Karl Barth (particularly his doctrine(s) of God and his relationship to (neo-)Thomism).
