Diese Anthologie stellt Texte aus Balthasars Werken zusammen, welche die Geistlichen Ubungen des hl. Ignatius von Loyola behandeln oder zumindest eine deutlich ignatianische Pragung haben. Die sorgfaltig getroffene Auswahl ergibt fast von selbst eine Art durchgehenden Exerzitienkommentar und bietet zugleich nicht nur einen Uberblick über Balthasars denkerisches Schaffen, sondern kann auch als eine Synthese seiner Theologie betrachtet werden, die grundsatzlich auf den Exerzitien beruht. Sowohl dem, der die Exerzitien macht, als auch dem, der sie gibt, mochten die Texte eine Handreichung zum...

První svazek rozměrné trilogie, která v předvečer druhé světové války (1937-1939) přinesla syntetizující pohled na vývoj moderní německé literatury a filozofie z hlediska proměn eschatologického myšlení. První díl se soustředí na epochu osvícenství a romantismu a jako jejich hlavní rys vykládá posuny křesťanské eschatologie směrem k prométheovskému principu, k imanentizujícímu a subjektivizujícímu pojetí vztahu mezi lidským duchem, přírodou, dějinami a božstvím. Spis má navzdory tematické šíři (od Lessinga či Herdera přes romantiky a...

Presents a series of studies of representative mystics, theologians, philosophers, and poets and explores the three mainstreams of metaphysics which have deve-loped since the 'catastrophe' of Nominalism.

In this volume von Balthasar turns to the works of the lay theologians, the poets and the philosopher theologians who have kept alive the Grand Tradition of Christian theology in writings formally very different from the works of the Fathers and the great Scholastics. This volume contains studies of Dante, John of the Cross, Pascal, Hamann, Soloviev, Hopkins and Peguy.

considers the metaphysical tradition of the contemplation of Being: Homer, the Greek Tragedians, Plato, Plotinus and the development of the tradition in the Middle Ages. Von Balthasar then explores the analogy between the metaphysical vision of Being and the Christian vision of the Trinity.

opens with a critical review of developments in Protestant and Catholic theology since the Reformation which have led to the steady neglect of aesthetics in Christian theology. Then, von Balthasar turns to the central theme of the volume, the question of theological knowledge. He re-examines the nature of Christian believing, drawing widely on such theological figures as Anselm, Pascal and Newman.

presents a sustained reflection on the New Testament vision of God's revelation of his glory in Christ. This divine 'appearing' is grounded in the self-emptying of the eternal Logos in the incarnation, cross and descent into hell, yet this is the means whereby his glory is manifested and enriches all who are seized by its beauty.

offers a series of earlier Christian theology when the aesthetic view was still held and appreciated. Drawing insights from some of the leading figures of the early Church such as Anselm, Augustine, Bonaventura, Denys and Irenaeus, von Balthasar presents his views with a freshness and vigour rarely excelled in contemporary theological writing about the Grand Tradition.

We are singularly fortunate in having in one volume the key texts from writings, spanning almost all the major themes and questions of the Christian tradition. These selections not only disclose the loveliness of style, the suavity of approach and the intuitive-comtemplative passion which makes his work so distinctive and valuable. America

From Luther to Kierkegaard, from Heidegger to Sartre, the theme of anguish has dominated both philosophy and spiritual theology. In our "societies of depression" where individuals confront their own loneliness, this theme has recently regained its intensity.

In these dense and luminous pages, he is not content merely to show how much this feeling is profoundly inscribed in the heart and the word of God--from the Psalms to the Gospels--but he enters into intimate dialogue with contemporary thought and in particular its existentialist expression. For Balthasar, the Christian faith...

Two great theologians endeavor to recover the centrality of Marian doctrine and devotion for the contemporary Church, offering a view of Mary as both the embodiment of the Church, and the mother who cooperates in giving birth to the Church in the souls of believers.
