Johann-Baptist Metz – författare

Johann-Baptist Metz and Jurgen Moltmann have been among the most influential European theologians of the past thirty years. In complementary ways they have emphasized the eschatological character of Christianity in a way that does justice both to the transcendent and this-worldly implications of the gospel. Both have tried to affirm the credibility of the Christian message in light of the horrors of modernity-the holocaust, war, misery in the third world

This now classic book presented on the 30th anniversary of its first appearance is universally acknowledged as the great classic of Metz's remarkable career, and indeed of all political theology. It is presented here in a new translation with an extensive study guide for readers and teachers.
