This collection of essays by distinguished authors explores the
present-day field of theological aesthetics: from von Balthasar's
contribution and parallel developments to correctives and
alternatives to his approach. A tribute to von Balthasar's own
project expands into a dialogue with ancient and medieval
traditions in search of revelatory aesthetics. The contributors
outline challenges to his approach (including Protestant
perspectives) and introduce new ways of viewing the field of
theological aesthetics, which ultimately opens up to the idea of
concrete cultural contexts and practical human needs determining
the use of the arts and aesthetic sensibilities in theology.
