Opis

Hans Urs von Balthasar is an important figure on the landscape of 20th-century theology. While much has been written on his later work, less attention has been given to his early work. In this study Balthasar is presented in relation to the features of his time, to his cultural, sociopolitical, ecclesial and theological contexts.

Recenzje

"Indem Paul Silas Peterson die Balthasar-Forschung für bestimmte Fragestellungen sensibilisiert hat, wird sein Werk den wissenschaftlichen Disput mit Sicherheit bereichern."M. Lochbrunner in: Theologie und Philososphie 2/2016 "This is a well-documented and fascinating picture of the complicated and murky scene on which Balthasar began to find himself as a Catholic commentator."Fergus Kerr in: The Tablet. The International Catholic News Weekly, 15. August 2015
