Opis

Nathan Soderblom (1866 - 1931), the Swedish scholar, churchman, and winner of the 1930 Nobel Peace Prize, was one of the early twentieth century's most influential Protestant thinkers. Christianity, he was convinced, had nothing to fear from close historical examination. For him, the religious ideal and the scientific ideal were one, and "truth" was something revealed in the historical process, inseparable from the conditions governing historical experience.

Originally published in 1990.
