Description
Dale M. Schlitt's study explores the roots and legacy of German Idealist philosophy for trinitarian theology.
The book examines how 19th-century thinkers, such as Philipp Marheineke, Isaak August Dorner, and Vladimir Sergeyevich Solovyov, engaged with Schelling's philosophical interpretations of Trinity, and how these ideas influenced later philosophers and theologians. A similar approach is taken to the work of 20th-century Germans Karl Barth, Karl Rahner, and Wolfhart Pannenberg, who share connections with the Idealists.
The book concludes by reflecting on the overall German Idealist trinitarian legacy, highlighting its ongoing relevance for those seeking to engage in creative trinitarian reflection.
