Description
Reclaiming Dietrich Bonhoeffer is certain to inspire a new consideration of Bonhoeffer’s place in latest theology. On this groundbreaking study, Charles Marsh offers a new way of reading the theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer–a Christian theologian who was once executed for his role in the resistance against Hitler and the Nazis. That specialize in Bonhoeffer’s substantial philosophical interests, Marsh examines his work in the context of the German philosophical tradition, from Kant through Hegel to Heidegger. With an eye at the latest debate about the sources of the self, Marsh argues that Bonhoeffer’s description of human identity offers a compelling alternative to post-Kantian conceptions of selfhood. By evaluating Bonhoeffer’s writings against the background of up to date German philosophy, Marsh shows that Bonhoeffer, whilst working within the boundaries of Barth’s theology, provides both a powerful critique and an innovative redescription of the tradition of transcendental subjectivity. Attentive to past scholarly endeavors in addition to to up to date conversations in critical theory, philosophical hermeneutics, and systematic theology, this fresh and original study of Bonhoeffer will definitely provoke important discussion not only in the theological academy and the church, but also in the broader forums of intellectual life.
