"Karl Barth and Hans Urs von Balthasar are two of the most important theologians of the last century. In Karl Barth and Hans Urs von Balthasar Stephen Wigley argues that von Balthasar's meeting with Barth and study of his works had a crucial influence on his own theology. Furthermore Wigley suggests that it informed the formation of von Balthasar's great theological trilogy, beginning with The Glory of the Lord, continuing with the Theo-Drama and finally concluding with the Theo-Logic. In particular Wigley argues that it is von Balthasar's debate with Barth over the analogy of being which determines the shape of his subsequent theology, structured as it is around the transcendentals of being; the beautiful, the good and the true."--BOOK JACKET.
