    Description

    Hans Urs von Balthasar (1905-1988) is one of the most prolific, creative and wide-ranging theologians of the twentieth century who is only now coming into prominence. Because of his range of competencies and the volume of his output, Balthasar has never been an easily-categorized theologian. This Companion brings together a wide range of theologians who assess his work which ranks with that of Origen, John Calvin, and Karl Barth.

    • Accessible and comprehensive guide to one of the most prolific theologians of the twentieth century who is now rising in prominence
    • Wide-ranging methodologies and approaches to enable the reader a wide exposure to the many fields where this theologian has made significant contributions
    • Eighteen chapters from eighteen authors who are highly respected in their fields

    Reviews & endorsements

    "An altogether excellent introduction to an important thinker." Theology Today

    "As a whole, the book makes a much more effective case in presenting Balthasar as substantive, original, inspiring and at time flawed."
    Gerry O'Hanlon, S.J. Theological Studies
