Oliver Davies Biography

Oliver Davies is one of the most popular and richest Australian cricketer who was born on January 10, 1956 in Bradford, United Kingdom. Oliver Davies was born in Bradford, United Kingdom, in 1956 but grew up in South Wales (his father was Eryl Davies). He attended Cardiff High School and then Merton College, Oxford (1975-9), where he studied German and Russian. He completed his doctoral work in the area of Religion and Literature, with a study of the German Jewish poet Paul Celan, at Wolfson College Oxford (1979–86). He met his wife Fiona Bowie at Wolfson and they married in 1981. From 1982-4 Davies lectured in English at the University of Cologne. His first publications were in the area of the medieval German mystical tradition, especially Meister Eckhart. From 1989 he taught Theology at University of Wales Bangor until his appointment as lecturer in Theology at University of Wales Lampeter in 1993 (Senior Lecturer from 1995 and Reader from 1997). Following the untimely death of Colin Gunton, Davies was appointed in 2004 to the Chair of Christian Doctrine at King’s College London. From 2006–9, he served as Head of the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at King’s.

Davies’ work combines an interest in language and communication, whether textual or oral, with questions of metaphysics, ethics and doctrine. His chief works to date are A Theology of Compassion, 2000, The Creativity of God, 2004, Transformation Theology, 2007 (with Paul Janz and Clemens Sedmak) and Theology of Transformation: Faith, Freedom and the Christian Act, 2013. His work can be characterized as a progression from metaphysics, to hermeneutics and finally to philosophies and theologies of the act. His work has furthered an emphasis on the centrality of ethics and the structure of the ethical self for Christian theology. In recent work Davies has also taken up the theme of the possibility of grounding global or ‘ecumenical’ accounts of the self in the proto-ethical structure of the self as identified in the contemporary neurobiology of human social cognition. He is currently writing a series of articles, published in English and Chinese, on the possibilities of new contemporary ‘global’ accounts of the self and on ‘ecumenical’ theologies, working together with colleagues from China, Europe and the UK. Davies has recently published an article with the scientist and author Adam Zeman on neurology, self and culture.
