Toward a Theology of Beauty: A Biblical Perspective

Over the centuries, theological studies have grappled with the comprehension of Truth and Goodness. However, theology, unlike philosophy, has neglected serious scrutiny of the study of Beauty or Aesthetics. Jo Ann Davidson’s Toward a Theology of Beauty investigates this omission.

Jo Ann Davidson is presently Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at Andrews University Theological Seminary in Berrien Springs, Michigan. She completed her Ph.D. in Systematic and Biblical Theology in 2000, at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois where her major professor was the late Paul Feinberg. Her earlier training and teaching was in music, after earning a M.A. in Music from Andrews University. Davidson has published articles in the Andrews University Seminary Studies and the Journal of the Adventist Theological Society. She previously authored Jonah: The Inside Story, (Review and Herald Publishing, 2002).
