Trinity and Election: The Christocentric Reorientation of Karl Barth’s Speculative Theology, 1936-1942
Autor Dr. Shao Kai Tsengen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 aug 2024
This book argues that Barth adopted the Anselmian mode of speculation in which immediate self-identity between subject, object, and act is found in the triune God alone, while the speculative identity that enables human knowledge of God is none other than the identity between God-in-and-for-Godself and God-for-us. Exploring the nationalistic dimension of speculative metaphysics in 19th-century Germany, Tseng identifies this as an important aspect of the context of Barth's development of a Christocentric form of speculative theology.

Recenzii
In this compelling work, Shao Kai Tseng offers a careful, detailed, sophisticated and convincing alternative to both ahistorical and historicized readings of Karl Barth with practical implications regarding social and political matters. By carefully considering the Anselmian and Hegelian moments in Barth's theology, this important book moves Barth studies beyond the problems embedded in McCormack's view of Barth's "actualism." Anyone interested in Barth's theology today will surely want to read this book.
Tseng's illuminating analysis of Barth's Christological concentration in the 1930s confirms the far-reaching theological fruitfulness of in-depth studies of Barth's theological development. It is on the precise determination of election and Trinity that the clarity of Barth's chosen path is decided. At the same time, the political implications that Tseng finally brings into focus show that his emphasis on the speculative character of Barth's thought is by no means in complete contradiction to a critical rationalism that Barth is attested by others.
Over against the neo-Kantian paradigm that has drawn so much attention these last decades, Tseng offers us a fascinating new reading of the intellectual impetus of Barth's mature theology. There may be (too) many books about Barth; but this is one any serious Barth scholar will have to reckon with.
