The legacies of Thomas Aquinas and Karl Barth remain influential
for contemporary theologians, who have increasingly put them into
conversation on debated questions over analogy and the knowledge of
God. However, little explicit dialogue has occurred between their
theologies of God. This book offers one of the first extended
analyzes of this fundamental issue, asking how each theologian
seeks to confess in fact and in thought God's qualitative
distinctiveness in relation to creation. Wittman first examines how
they understand the correspondence and distinction between God's
being and external acts within an overarching concern to avoid
idolatry. Second, he analyzes the kind of relation God bears to
creation that follows from these respective understandings. Despite
many common goals, Aquinas and Barth ultimately differ on the
subject matter of theological reason with consequences for their
ability to uphold God's distinctiveness consistently. These
mutually informative issues offer some important lessons for
contemporary theology.
