Description
Summary:With Bonhoeffer’s Theological Formation (2012), Michael P. DeJonge has offered an insightful and exciting study focussed on Bonhoeffer’s second dissertation in view of Systematic Theology in historical perspective. The clarity and precision with which DeJonge engages in his theological argument is matched by a keen awareness that any systematic claim has to ground itself in a clear understanding of its historical situation and critical reflection of its methodology. Thus we do not only find here a critical analysis of the reception of Bonhoeffer’s early work in Act and Being (orig. 1929–30), but we are given a rigorous overview of the historical, philosophical, and confessional implications of Bonhoeffer’s thought.
