Challenging recent rejections of Hans Urs von Balthasar's
groundbreaking study of Karl Barth's theology, Stephen Long argues
that these interpreters are myopically impatient with the nuances
of Balthasar's reading of Barth and fail to appreciate the
longstanding theological friendship that perdured. Even more,
current readings threaten to repristinate the embattled divide
hallmarking Protestant-Catholic relations prior to Vatican II. Long
contends against these contemporary trajectories in a substantial
defense of Balthasar's theological preoccupation with Barth's
thought. This book offers one of the first full contextualizations
of the friendship that developed between Balthasar and Barth, which
lasted from the 1930s until Balthasar's death in the 1980s.
Re-evaluating Balthasar's theological work on Barth, the present
volume provides a critical new reading of not only Balthasar's
original volume but a wider account of the systematic engagement
Balthasar carried on throughout his career. Within this, a paradigm
for fruitful, generous ecumenical dialogue emerges.
