  Protestant Theology In The 19th Century (Reprinted)

  $58.99

  Introduction by Colin E. Gunton

  Interest in Karl Barth is running at unprecedented levels in the English-speaking world, and it is high time that his excellent survey of formative eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Protestant thinkers be made available again to theological students and general readers.

  Featuring an extensive introduction by Colin E. Gunton that recontextualizes and reintroduces Barth’s work for a new generation, this book provides a superb review of the shapers of modern Protestant thought and practice. Barth offers insightful readings of all the most significant figures of the modern period – Rousseau, Lessing, Kant, Hegel, Schleiermacher, Feuerbach, Ritschl, and others – as well as several lesser-known thinkers. Also included here are Barth’s preface to the original 1946 German edition and a translation of his hard-to-find essay “On the Task of a History of Modern Protestant Theology.”

  In addition to providing insight into some of the church’s seminal theologians, this volume offers an excellent look at Barth himself. In capturing Barth’s personal views on doctrine, the church, and intellectual history, the book also provides valuable background reading for those studying Barth’s own theology.

  Homiletics

  $30.00

  To Barth, one of this century’s most influential theologians, theology should never be an end in itself. Instead, it should be ”nothing other than sermon preparation.” Now, in this new translation by Geoffrey Bromiley and Donald Daniels, students can meet and wrestle with Barth’s homiletical definitions and ideas on sermon preparation, including his understanding of the ways preachers should interpret Scripture. Barth presented this material as seminar lectures in Bonn in 1932-33.

  Dogmatics In Outline

  $31.65

  Barth stands before us as the greatest theologian of the twentieth century, yet the massive corpus of work which he left behind, the multi volume Church Dogmatics, can seem daunting and formidable to readers today. Fortunately his Dogmatics in Outline first published in English in 1949, contains in brilliantly concentrated form even in shorthand, the essential tenets of his thinking. Built around the assertions made in the Apostles Creed the book consists of a series of reflections on the foundation stones of Christian doctrine. Because Dogmatics in Outline derives from very particular circumstances namely the lectures Barth gave in war-shattered Germany in 1946, it has an urgency and a compassion which lend the text a powerful simplicity. Despite its brevity the book makes a tremendous impact, which in this new edition will now be felt by a fresh generation of readers.
