| Summary: | Karl Barth's vituperative criticisms of Friedrich Schleiermacher are no secret, and much has been made by theologians of the apparent division between the two. In this revision of his 2002 doctoral dissertation, completed at Princeton under Bruce McCormack, Matthias Gockel joins Robert Sherman and others in enriching our understanding of the relationship between Barth and Schleiermacher, challenging traditional evaluations that ‘liberal theology’ and ‘dialectical theology’ stand in irreconcilable opposition., Gockel restricts his inquiry to an incisive and cogent comparison of the development of the doctrine of election in the two thinkers. Gockel's thesis is that the doctrine of election in Barth's early theology bears a close resemblance to Schleiermacher's own theocentric position. |
