Anton Å trukelj, in this English edition of his book Kneeling
Theology, which was published in German, Italian, Polish, Russian
and Slovenian, based his theme on the concept first developed by
Hans Urs von Balthasar. This Swiss intellectual is considered one
of the most important theologians of the 20th century.
Å trukelj sees as his task, through a synthetic survey of
questions, to seek from his subjects a holistic perspective
regarding the role of the theologian, without doing a critical
analysis of all their work. Kneeling Theology analyzes the process
and its consequences that gave rise to the religious and cultural
developments of the past and the present. It is his thesis that the
essence of theology should flow from holiness. He relies for his
evidence on the life and work of Hans Urs von Balthasar (which
included the insights of Adrienne von Speyr, physician and mystic),
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI), the Slovenian
theologian Anton Strle (now servant of God) and Anton Vovk, former
Archbishop of Ljubljana, fearless witness of Christ and his Church,
also servant of God. Å trukelj's purpose with this book is to
point out that Catholic theology is best served, not only by
competent research and a thorough knowledge of Church tradition,
but by theologians who approach their work prayerfully and on their
knees. The rich theological and pastoral heritage that has been
bequeathed to us by a small group of special people in this book
has come about because of their scholarship and their holiness.
They have, each in their own way, demonstrated what it means to do
theology on their knees, and they have shared their scholarship and
insights with us.
