Abstract

On March 5, 2019, the prestigious Australian Catholic theologian James Denis Edwards suddenly left us due to a stroke. Denis Edwards was born in Puerto Pirie (Adelaide) on December 10, 1943 and was ordained a priest in 1966. After a few years of dedication to pastoral ministry, the Church asked him to deepen his theological study with a doctorate to dedicate himself to university teaching.
