Since its publication in 1964, The Unknown Christ of Hinduism has
been singled out for praise as the quintessential example of Raimon
Panikkar's engagement with theology of religions. Controversies
over the real meaning of the title and the author's remark that
Christ is unknown to Hindus and a fortiori to Christians have been
waged among generations of scholars. Refusing to isolate Panikkar's
concerns with the Hindu-Christian dialogue from much larger
theological and biblical debates occurring in the period before and
during the Vatican Council II, this book suggests that the unknown
Christ of Christianity is the plastic representation of an
insufficient degree of universality of the Church. Rejecting
traditional interpretations that identify a gulf between the first
and the second edition of The Unknown, this book argues for a
continuity in Raimon Panikkar's thought.
