Glory of the Lord VOL 1
by Hans Urs von Balthasar, Joseph Fessio, and John Riches
Published 1 May 1983
This text opens with a critical review of developments in Protestant and Catholic theology since the Reformation which have led to the steady neglect of aesthetics in Christian theology. Then, von Balthasar turns to the central theme of the volume, the question of theological knowledge. He re-examines the nature of Christian believing, drawing widely on such theological figures as Anselm, Pascal and Newman.
