"For the Sake of the World" gathers the presentations from one of
the most successful Barth conferences ever held in the United
States. Here thirteen of Karl Barthbs most astute interpreters
explore in fresh ways a variety of themes from Barthbs life and
work, showing how Barth still has much to offer the contemporary
world.
Organized as a dialogue between the contributors, this volume
features cutting-edge studies followed by substantial critical
responses. The subjects discussed in detail include the
Barth-Brunner correspondence, Barthbs position on the Jews during
the Hitler era, Barth and politics, Barthbs doctrine of providence,
Barthbs thought on Christian love and ethics, and Barthbs
conception of time and eternity. The volume ends with a winsome
memoir of Barth as a teacher.
