The 2013 New College Lectures will feature Professor Stanley Hauerwas. In the series he will reflect on his own life and development as a theologian set against the work of other theologians, literary theorists, philosophers and ethicists.

Lecture 3 - ‘How Not To Be a Political Theologian’

Professor Hauerwas is an ethicist and public intellectual considered by many to be one of the world's most influential living theologians. Named "America's Best Theologian" by ‘Time Magazine’, Hauerwas is frequently read and debated by scholars in fields outside of religion, theology, or ethics, including political philosophy, sociology, history and literary theory.
