The Theology of Karl BarthÊshows how a rethinking of basic issues in fundamental theologyÑconcerning the relation of nature and grace, philosophy and theology, the "analogy of being" and the "analogy of faith"Ñmight lead to a rapprochement between the two great rivers of Christianity, without compromising the center of gravity of either. In the process the book makes a major contribution to renewed understanding of Christianity in a secularized modern world. Co-published with Communio Books.
"No one should think he can quickly dispose of questions posed here offhandedly. It was precisely because writers were in the habit during the time of the Reformation of theologizing with a hammer that the split in the Church became irreparable. And to work at overcoming this split means much effort. Only the patient need apply."Ê
Ñ Hans Urs von Balthasar
