The Varieties of Forgiveness

from Gresham College Lectures · host Gresham College

Forgiveness is often discussed as if it were a single, straightforward, phenomenon. The reality, however, is not so simple. For instance, we can identify three different types of forgiveness: inter-personal forgiveness, God's forgiveness, and self- forgiveness. Moreover there is variety within each of these main types, and connections between them. In this lecture the varieties of forgiveness will be presented and the integrity, value and limits of each type explored.A lecture by The Revd Dr Stephen Cherry, Dean at King's College Cambridge 7 February 2019The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/forgivenessGresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.
