The field does exist. You may want for example to read Newton. He

Newton on theology is one of the things I would least like to read.
Why? Presumably there were questions that he had found important. It might be
interesting to understand what questions touched him and what has happened with these
questions at present.
One of the questions was whether the godhead was one or three (whatever that means). The
question was settled for a time by persecuting those of opposite opinion. I think now
opposite views are held by divided camps, like the Big Endians and the Little Endians.
In general, I believe that the best approach would be a historical one. This way one
would understand better the subject matter of theology.
That's like saying it is best to take a historical approach to witchcraft. It's best
because there is no empirical approach and there is no empirical approach because there
are no witches.
