WESSELS, Mr. W.. On justice and beauty in recent South African homiletics: a post-colonial reflection. Acta theol. [online]. 2020, vol.40, suppl.29, pp.176-194. ISSN 2309-9089.  https://doi.org/10.18820/23099089/actat.sup29.10.

In recent South African homiletics, two major themes have experienced overwhelming attention: prophetic preaching and aesthetics. Prophetic preaching endeavours to seek social, political, and economic justice. Aesthetic homiletics considers beauty for preaching. In this article, I grapple with the convergences and divergences of justice and beauty in South African homiletics. With the hope of opening new avenues for future endeavours, I also reflect on both prophetic preaching and aesthetic homiletics from a post-colonial perspective.

Palabras clave : Prophetic preaching; Aesthetic homiletics; Post-colonial theory.
