Wolfhart Pannenberg is one of the most challenging contemporary
theologians for students to study. This "Guide for the Perplexed",
explains his school of thought and overall ideas in a comprehensive
and accessible form. Wolfhart Pannenberg (b 1928) is one of the
most influential theologians and philosophers of our time. He
studied under Karl Barth and became Professor of Systematic
Theology at Mainz and Munich, where he still lives. In this "Guide
for the Perplexed", Tim Bradshaw explains Pannenberg's thought, in
which theology is not separable from a 'secular' philosophy, along
the grain of his development. Key texts are used for this, and
difficult perplexing ideas, such as his notion of 'retroactivity'
from the future back through the past and present, are addressed in
the context of Pannenberg's overarching view of things. His
doctrine of the Trinity, his view of simultaneity and human
development, as well as his engagement with the natural sciences
are major areas of perplexity given attention. How the ideal is
instantiated in the real, or how the real is the rational, is
argued as a clue to his system. "Continuum's Guides for the
Perplexed" are clear, concise and accessible introductions to
thinkers, writers and subjects that students and readers can find
especially challenging - or indeed downright bewildering.
Concentrating specifically on what it is that makes the subject
difficult to grasp, these books explain and explore key themes and
ideas, guiding the reader towards a thorough understanding of
demanding material.
