Summary: | This volume represents a significant contribution to the growing array of literature available on the theological ethics of Karl Barth. Its author, the Walter Professor of Theology at the University of Notre Dame, has engaged seriously and frequently over the past decade and more with the ethical legacy of the great Swiss theologian. The result, published here, is an impressive critical study not only of Barth’s moral ontology but also of the challenges and opportunities which it poses to contemporary Christian ethics., The book opens with a concise introduction, offering the reader an orientation to Barth’s ethics—to its fundamental (theological) presuppositions, its dynamic ontic and noetic structure, and its teleological vision. |
