Little known fact: overwork causes one’s neck to become invisible!
After an embarrassing amount of time, I’ve finally finished my encyclopedia entry on the Trinity for the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (as well as lengthy supplementary documents on the history of Trinity doctrines, Judaic and Islamic objections, and unitarianism).
Since I can’t thank them in the entry, I’d like to thank editors Ed Zalta and Uri Nodelman for their help, and their patience in working through many issues that arose. Also, thanks to SEP philosophy of religion editor Ed Wierenga, for his comments on a draft, and help in figuring up how to divide up the enormous thing.
My thanks to those who offered helpful comments on various drafts, including James Anderson, and trinities bloggers Joseph Jedwab, JT Paasch, and Scott Williams. I also benefited from correspondence with Richard Cross, and with historian Dean Grodzins.
Many parts of the entries are related to my previous posts here at trinities, so I have to also thank everyone who commented on those as well.
It took so long, a couple of sections are already a little out of date!
Finally: become a friend of the SEP. I’m going to I did. Friends get to download really awesome pdfs of the entries, which look & print like book pages.
Update: discussion over at Prosblogion.
