Summary: | One of the most prolific theologians of the modern age, Karl Rahner drew on Ignatius of Loyola, Thomas Aquinas, the Kantian tradition, and Martin Heidegger to forge a new approach to the concrete dialectic of historical transcendence. This essay offers guidance for reading him in a new century with particular attention to his understanding of human reason; the reciprocal relations of knowledge, love and freedom; the interrelatedness of our experience of God, self, and community; the primacy of praxis; and his concrete dialectical approach to shared freedom in time. |
