This study shows how the trinitarian theology of Hans Urs von
Balthasar opens up an approach to the controversial question of
God's immutability and impassibility which succeeds in respecting
both the transcendence and the immanence of God. Contrary to both
Process thought and the classical Thomist position, von Balthasar's
scattered treatment is here presented thematically, in a way which
makes it clear that his idea of an analogous event in the
trinitarian God (in which we participate) is a radical
re-interpretation of the traditional Christian axiom of divine
immutability. In the course of outlining the distinctiveness of von
Balthasar's approach, O'Hanlon introduces the reader to some of the
fundamental themes of one of the major Roman Catholic theologians
of this century, who is still relatively unknown in the
English-speaking world.
