Description
Summary:Hugo Rahner's anthropology comprises two elements: the philosophical tradition of Christian humanism and the theological view of a man as passed on to Rahner by the Jesuit Order. – The first is based on the ancient Greek authors Summary (and continued into early Christianity). There the concept of man is characterized by the harmony of body and mind, being rooted into the "Absolute", in the eyes of which the contrasts of this life appear like a game, simultaneously expressing gravity and lightness. The core of Rahner's theological interpretation of man lies in the Christology of the "Spiritual Exercises" by St Ignatius. Only by following the crucified Christ we will find our real life. In both views we find one of Rahner's central themes. God's majesty is revealed in the banality of the world visible: in the humiliation of Christ crucified, in the Church's weakness, in man's greatness and misery.
