Paul Tillich is best known today as a theologian of mediation. Many
have come to view him as an out-of-date thinker a safe exemplar of
a mid-twentieth-century theological liberalism. The way he has come
to be viewed contrasts sharply with the current theological
landscape one dominated by the notion of radicality. In this
collection, Russell Re Manning breaks with the widespread opinion
of Tillich as 'safe' and dated. Retrieving the Radical Tillich
depicts the thinker as a radical theologian, strongly marked but
never fully determined by the urgent critical demands of his time.
From the crisis of a German cultural and religious life after the
First World War, to the new realities of religious pluralism,
Tillich's theological responses were always profoundly ambivalent,
impure and disruptive, asserts Re Manning. The Tillich that is
outlined and analyzed by this collection is never merely
correlative. Far from the dominant image of the theologian as a
liberal accommodationist, Re Manning reintroduces the troubled and
troubling figure of the radical Tillich.
