PhDs on Gunton's Theology

I know of two completed, and one almost completed, doctoral dissertations on Colin Gunton's theology. Are there any others out there?

1. Brad Green (Assistant Professor of Christian Studies, Union University, , “Colin Gunton and the failure of Augustine: An exposition and analysis of the theology of Colin Gunton in light of Augustine's 'De Trinitate'” (PhD, Baylor University, 2000). Part of which has been published in the July 2007 edition of IJST.

2. David Hohne (Lecturer in Theology and Philosophy, Moore College, Sydney) ‘The Spirit and Sonship: Colin Gunton’s Theology of Particularity.’ (PhD thesis. University of Cambridge, 2007). Supervised by David Ford.

3. Nathaniel Suda, 'The Difference the Trininty Makes: A Critical Examination of the Theology of Colin Gunton', (University of Aberdeen, not yet submitted). Supervised by John Webster.

Hiya Andy,

I have read a lot of the material that you have written about Colin Gunton. A couple of days ago I read your list of PhDs completed at King's under Gunton's supervision. Unfortunately the link to the list is no longer in operation. Is it still possible to access that information?

Blessings,

Mick
