How to Read Karl Barth: The Shape of His Theology - George Hunsinger (Free Download Book PDF)

George Hunsinger 
Oxford University Press, Apr 29, 1993

This critical study decodes the most cryptic and elusive patterns of Karl Barth's dialectic. Hunsinger not only offers a new and authoritative interpretation of Barth's mature theology, but also places Barth's work in relation to contemporary discussions of truth, justified belief, double agency, and religious pluralism. Through a fresh and compelling reading of Church Dogmatics, Hunsinger offers a new account of the coherence of that work as a whole.
