Abstract
Because of the shifts in his fundamental understanding of epistemology, sal vation, and revelation, Edward Schillebeeckx argues that an appropriate und erstanding of the development of doctrine no longer located doctrinal conti nuity in the preservation or logical development of earlier doctrinal langu age. Rather. he argues that doctrinal development authentically arises from a critical translation of Christian experience from one historical era to the next.
