Karl Barth's Analogy of BeautyIts Basis and Implications for Theological Aesthetics\nAuthor(s): Andrew Dunstan\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781032073118, 978-1032073118\nSynopsis\nThis book provides the first comprehensive examination of Karl Barths view of beauty. For over fifty years, scholars have assumed Barth recovered traditional belief in Gods beauty but refused to entertain any relationship between this and more familiar natural and artistic beauties. Hans Urs von Balthasar was the first to offer this interpretation, and his conclusion has been echoed ever since, rendering Barths view of beauty irrelevant to work in theological aesthetics. This volume continues the late-twentieth-century revision of Balthasars interpretation of Barth by arguing that this too is a significant misunderstanding of his theology. Andrew Dunstan demonstrates that, through an encounter with fatalistic forms of Reformed theology.
