The Early Hans Urs von Balthasar: Historical Contexts and Intellectual Formation

Description: The Early Hans Urs von Balthasar by Paul Silas Peterson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Hans Urs von Balthasar is an important figure on the landscape of 20th-century theology. While much has been written on his later work, less attention has been given to his early work. In this study Balthasar is presented in relation to the features of his time, to his cultural, sociopolitical, ecclesial and theological contexts. Publisher Description although Hans Urs von Balthasars earliest publication is from 1925, and although he was a mature forty years old in 1945, there is a deficiency in the secondary literature regarding his early literature, its historical backgrounds and non-theological sources. In this study Balthasar is presented in relation to the various contexts in which he was both drawing upon and responding to from the 1920s to the 1940s. The major contexts analyzed here are the broad central European Germanophone cultural context, the Germanophone Catholic cultural context, the German studies context, the French Catholic renewal literature and theology of the early 20th-century, the popular journal Stimmen der Zeit, Neo-Scholasticism, early 20th-century French Catholic culture, Swiss fascism, National Socialist literature, the Renouveau Catholique, the George-Kreis and many others. Balthasars early anti-Semitism and some of the problematic aspects of his early work are also addressed in this study. His understanding of the modern age, his relationships with some key intellectual figures and his later reflections on his early work are also introduced. The book offers a comprehensive study of Balthasars early intellectual development. Author Biography Paul Silas Peterson, University of TÜbingen, Germany.
