Daniel L Migliore: Afterword
Paul Dafydd Jones is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at
the University of Virginia. He is the author of The Humanity of
Christ: Christology in Karl Barth's Church Dogmatics (2008), which
was awarded a John Templeton Award for Theological Promise in 2010.
He has published widely in the fields of Christian thought,
political theology, and constructive theology and is co-editor,
with Paul T Nimmo, of the monograph series Explorations in
Reformed
Theology. He is currently completing a substantial constructive
work on patience as a theological concept and serves as co-director
of the project on 'Religion and its Publics' at the University of
Virginia.
Paul T Nimmo is the King's Chair of Systematic Theology at the
University of Aberdeen. His first monograph, Being in Action: The
Theological Shape of Barth's Ethical Vision (2007), was awarded a
John Templeton Award for Theological Promise in 2009. He has since
authored Barth: A Guide for the Perplexed (2017), co-edited with
David Fergusson The Cambridge Companion to Reformed Theology
(2016), and edited the church resource Learn: Understanding Our
Faith
(2017). He is Senior Editor of International Journal of Systematic
Theology; co-editor, with Paul Dafydd Jones, of the monograph
series Explorations in Reformed Theology; and co-Chair of the AAR
Reformed Theology and History Unit.
The volume(s) under review here deserve wide reading and careful
attention. The(y) provide faithful guides to Barth's thought. The
two essay collections will also help students who want to find
brief and reliable summaries of facets of his theology and his
connections to other thinkers and movements.
*Calvin Theological Journal*
The Oxford Handbook of Karl Barth is an outstanding one-stop-shop
on all things Karl Barth. Each of its chapters are short, under
twenty pages, and remain accessible for curious or first-time
readers of Barth .. .I heartily recommend it for students, pastors,
and anyone eager to know more about the extraordinary life and
thought of this towering twentieth century theologian.
*John Sampson, Trinity Journal*
What he accomplishes in the pages of this book is tremendous, and
each bend in the road, though sometimes unexpected, is
valuable.
*Madison N. Pierce, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Trinity
Journal*
Ultimately, Barth intervenes on modern trajectories of racial
identity formation that crystallizes around the notion of
"whiteness"...Barth's work suggests a way beyond it (p.
513-514).
*Bulletin de théologie fondamentale*
The Barth Handbook first offers a 'contextual' treatment...At the
very end we find Barth's wider significance in the two contexts of
Protestant and Roman Catholic theology.
*Andrew Chandler, Journal of Ecclesiastical History*
