About this product

Product Information

This perceptive study of the Protestant theologian Karl Barth decodes the most cryptic and elusive patterns of Barth's dialectic. Hunsinger here advances a new and authoritative interpretation of barth's mature theology, and places Barth's work in relation to contemporary discussions of truth, justified belief, double agency, and religious pluralism.Offering a fresh reading of the Church Dogmatics, Hunsinger uncovers a series of thought-forms that pervade and underlie Barth's work. He abandons the attempt to find one definite 'key' or 'central' concept in Barth's massive 10,000 page opus and instead presents a sophisticated array of motifs that serve as a guide to understanding the many facets of Barth's thought. How to Read Karl Barth offers a powerful account of the coherence of that multi-volumed work as a whole. Barth's thought

"Useful and important....Even those who dissent from Barth (or Hunsinger's reading of Barth) will find this book indispensable."--Cross Currents, "A quite splendid and original book to be read and re-read by those who want to understand Barth."--Expository Times, "Hunsinger hopes to advance Barthian studies by deepening our understanding of Barth's own modes of thought. He briefly shows how certain earlier authors, while providing valuable insights, failed to grasp Barth's complexity. Since Hunsinger himself succeeds in grasping Barth's uhought to afine degree, I anticipate that this book will become a standard text."--The Christian Century, "If there are prizes for how-to books, George Hunsinger's should win the chutzpah category hands down....Hunsinger, who has written previously about the political implications of Barth's thought, now gives us something salutary and timely: a solid, scholarly overview of Barth doing what Barthdoes best--dogmatic theology--and what the church especially needs today."--Commonweal, "Brings a rare thoroughness and carefulness to the daunting work of Barthinterpretation....He admirably and aptly accounts for the complexity andrichness of Barth. I anticipate How to Read Karl Barth will become a standardtext that one will ignore at the peril of faulty Nachdenken and shallowcriticism."--Journal of Religion, "It is often a work of art in itself, with a texture and depth as richlynuanced as the gallery it depicts....Nothing less than luminous."--FirstThings, "Hunsinger hopes to advance Barthian studies by deepening ourunderstanding of Barth's own modes of thought.

Since Hunsinger himself succeeds in grasping Barth's uhought to afine degree, I anticipate that this book will become a standard text."--TheChristian Century, "With this book George Hunsinger establishes himself not only as a leading Barth interpreter, but as one of the keenest minds of his generation working in doctrinal theology....[He] has moved Barth interpretation a major step forward. Lucid, tightly reasoned, elegantly structured and fluently written, this book rewards repeated reading. Not for connoisseurs of Barth only, the theological issues it addresses are so fundamental to any theology that students needing an introduction or pastors wanting a refresher course need look no further."-- The Princeton Seminary Bulletin "A quite splendid and original book to be read and re-read by those who want to understand Barth."-- Expository Times "Brings a rare thoroughness and carefulness to the daunting work of Barth interpretation....He admirably and aptly accounts for the complexity and richness of Barth. I anticipate How to Read Karl Barth will become a standard text that one will ignore at the peril of faulty Nachdenken and shallow criticism."-- Journal of Religion "In 30 years of studying the theology of Karl Barth, I have never come across so illuminating a treatment of Barth's thought. This book is absolutely indispensable for anyone attempting to understand Barth's way of doing theology, and it will be of immense help to those seeking to take full advantage of the contribution Barth has yet to make to Christian theology in our day."-- Theological Studies "Useful and important....Even those who dissent from Barth (or Hunsinger's reading of Barth) will find this book indispensable."-- Cross Currents, Brings a thoroughness and carefulness to the daunting work of Barth interpretation ...

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
