Jüngel is one of the most original and influential Protestant theologians to emerge after Karl Barth, and his theology has received fresh interest of late from systematic theologians, biblical scholars and historians of modern Christian thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e R. David Nelson guides the reader through the figures, movements and conceptual developments in the background of Jüngel's thought. By introducing Jüngel's four major monographs and eleven of his key essays, Nelson is able to assess a number of themes prominent in Jüngel's theology, and to summarize the achievements, challenges, and prospects of his theological contribution. This comprehensive introduction will help the inquisitive student to engage with Jüngel's thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“David Nelson here offers a wonderful entrée into the life and work of Eberhard Jüngel. Accessible, engaging and insightful, Nelson's expert account of Jüngel's formative intellectual world and development, as well as his highly instructive “field notes” to several of Jüngel's most import texts will prove an invaluable guide to students and future readers of this important and influential – if often perplexing – modern European theologian.” —\u003ci\u003ePHILIP G.

David Nelson offers a sure and reliable guide to the thought of this modern master. His treatment of Jüngel's relevance for ecclesiology and Protestant-Catholic ecumenism is unsurpassed.” —\u003ci\u003eJOSEPH MANGINA, WYCLIFFE COLLEGE, CANADA\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Sometimes the thought of a major theologian needs to be distilled by an expert if it is to be appreciated by future generations – and all the more so when the reader is confronted with a variety of works, whose contexts may no longer be understood, and does not know where to begin. Fortunately, David Nelson has provided just what is needed with respect to Eberhard Jüngel – a reliable guidebook to one of the major theologians of the twentieth century.” —\u003ci\u003eJOHN BETZ, UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME, USA\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9780567660039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"T\u0026T Clark","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40660288504014,"sku":"9780567660039","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_32ecf595-f386-4894-b10b-01ee9858910f.jpg?v=1639536798","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9780567660039","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
