Challenging recent rejections of Hans Urs von Balthasars groundbreaking study of Karl Barths theology, Stephen Long argues that these interpreters are impatient with the nuances of Balthasars reading and fail to appreciate the longstanding theological friendship between the two. Long offers a substantial defense of Balthasars theological preoccupation with Barths thought and explores the friendship that developed between Balthasar and Barth.Re-evaluating Balthasars theological work on Barth, Saving Karl Barth provides a critical new reading of Balthasars original volume and a wider account of the systematic engagement Balthasar carried on throughout his career.
