Christ and Analogy : The Christocentric Metaphysics of Hans Urs Von Balthasar Paperback / softback
by Junius Johnson
Part of the Emerging Scholars series
Paperback / softback
Description
As one of the pillars of the nouvelle theologie movement, a main influence upon the Second Vatican Council, and one of the few figures to complete a full-scale multi-volume systematics, Hans Urs von Balthasar is undoubtedly one of the towering figures of twentieth-century theology.
Until now, the structural undergirding of von Balthasar's main contribution, a weighty 15-volume, three-part "triptych" dogmatics, has not been assessed.
In this volume, the author presents an analysis of von Balthasar's work in dogmatics and provides the structural linchpin for understanding the whole of this massive (and massively important) systematic theology by reconstructing the metaphysics of von Balthasar.
Taking the person of Jesus Christ as the metaphysical starting point, the project highlights the fundamental connections to key doctrinal, historical, and philosophical issues.
This is a critical volume for professors, scholars, and students in systematic theology, philosophical theology, and the study of twentieth-century Catholic and Protestant theology and history.
