Barth stands before us as the greatest theologian of the twentieth
century, yet the massive corpus of work which he left behind, the
multi volume Church Dogmatics, can seem daunting and formidable to
readers today. Fortunately his Dogmatics in Outline first published
in English in 1949, contains in brilliantly concentrated form even
in shorthand, the essential tenets of his thinking. Built around
the assertions made in the Apostles Creed the book consists of a
series of reflections on the foundation stones of Christian
doctrine. Because Dogmatics in Outline derives from very particular
circumstances namely the lectures Barth gave in war-shattered
Germany in 1946, it has an urgency and a compassion which lend the
text a powerful simplicity. Despite its brevity the book makes a
tremendous impact, which in this new edition will now be felt by a
fresh generation of readers.
