Description
The Systematic Thought of Hans Urs von Balthasar: An Irenaean Retrieval by Kevin Mongrain explores the unifying theme in the writings of Hans Urs von Balthasar, revealing a Christian theology that balances reverence for the Mystery of God with resistance to gnosticism. Von Balthasar's retrieval of Irenaeus of Lyons serves as the foundation for his thought, providing inspiration for a genuinely Christian approach to theology. This work offers insight into von Balthasar's systematic thought and its significance in contemporary theological discourse. Through Mongrain's analysis, readers can gain a deeper understanding of von Balthasar's intellectual legacy and its ongoing relevance in modern theology.
