McCormack offers the first full-scale revision of the well-known theologian Hans Urs von Balthasars seminal interpretation of Barth  which was first published in 1951. Drawing on a wealth of material  much of it unpublished during Barths lifetime  as well as a thorough acquaintance with the best of recent German scholarship  McCormack demonstrates that the fundamental decision that would control the whole of Barths development--the turn to a new  critically realistic form of theological \"objectivism\"--was already made during the years in which Barth was at work on his first commentary on Romans. He further argues that the most significant decisions--both material and methodological--were made in Barths Gttingen Dogmatics of 1924\/5  and not later in the 1931 book on Anselm  as has often been alleged. This unique and important work provides not simply a fresh interpretation of Barths development  but a new paradigm for understanding the whole of Barths theology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67898829635637,"sku":"ByrdShop_0198269560","price":173.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780198269564.jpg?v=1793785238","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/karl-barths-critically-realistic-dialectical-theology-its-genesis-and-development-19091936-9780198269564","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
