For theologians seeking deep insights into Barth's work

Clarifies Barth's views on the Holy Spirit and theology

You will gain a richer understanding of Christian doctrine

This book explores Karl Barth's insights on pneumatology and the Holy Spirit.

Toward the end of his career, Karl Barth made the provocative statement that perhaps what Schleiermacher was up to was a "theology of the third-article" and that he anticipated in the future that a true third-article theology would appear. Many interpreters, of course, took that to indicate not only a change in Barth's perception of Schleiermacher but also as a self-referential critique. The author investigates this claim, contesting the standard interpretations, and argues for a Barthian pneumatology - a doctrine of the Holy Spirit grounded in the scriptural witness and connected to the vital Christological and dialectical theology found in Barth's project.
