Recenzii
This is a maginificent, engrossing lucid and comprehensive treatment of the most important theologian of the modern era. Tietz has given not only to Barth scholarship but also to the history of theology in the twentieth century a great gift. We are in her debt. She reminds us of Barth's abiding preoccupation with God, and specifically with Jesus Christ who is "the event God's grace, a new beginning between God and humanity that is grounded solely in God". She also helps us undertsand something of the conflicts that this preoccupation encouraged.
Tietz's book presents us with a golden opportunity to get up to speed on the current understanding of Barth, both the man and his theology
Tietz's Barth biography is a book worthy of recommendation not only for professional Barth researchers, but for everyone (even non-theologians) interested in church history and in contemporary history.
Tietz's work fills a major scholarly lacuna and deserves wide readership among pastors, teachers, students, and lay believers.
... Tietz's primary achievement here is surely to map the intellectual development of Barth and to locate that contextually within the political circumstances that surrounded him.
Tietz has written a readable and meticulously researched biography of Karl Barth (1886-1968). She integrates Barth's life and work, and a very ''human'' Karl Barth emerges.
Selected as a 2021 Book of the Year by Alan Billings, Church Times
Tietz's book is outstanding: her chapter-length summary of Barth's monumental, multi-volume 'Church Dogmatics' (1932-67), theologically the cornerstone and pinnacle of his achievement, is among the best short treatments of it I have read.
Tietz provides a sound and useful orientation to Barth's life and work.
Remarkable ... meticulously researched and thoroughly referenced... [it] will become a standard text for all engaging with Barth's theology for generations to come.
Tietz uses an impressive array of primary sources such as letters to his friend Eduard Thurneysen to chart Barth's life.
Very readable and accessible... Tietz's biography is a good entry into [Barth's] life and thought.
Karl Barth's life story is worth telling. Or, better still, worth reading. A new biography, Karl Barth: A Life in Conflict by Christiane Tietz, tells it well... It is a compelling read.
Christiane Tietz compellingly explores the interactions between Barth's personal and political biography and his theology... an evocative portrait of a theologian
[Tietz] is a reliable guide to her academic grandfather and the biography functions as a sound, accessible introduction to Barth's thought.
Tietz successfully places Barth's heological writings within key events of his life and the wider world, providing a broader context that illuminates his thought far more than the typical summaries. The portrait that emerges across the decades of Barth's career is one of an irascible thinker who seems to enjoy having controversial opinions.
[The book] reads smoothly but with the kind of clarity that is symptomatic of the best kind of academic work. In other words, the book is highly readable yet very much built on a reliable foundation... Tietz's work is diligent and insightful. I suspect her book will become the standard biography of Karl Barth for some time. For students of Barth's theology, it is indispensable.
Christiane Tietz has done exemplary well in composing a thoroughly broad and yet deep investigation...We further believe this biography will be the standard biography on Barth for many years to come.
Tietz's work will be another standard biographical treatment of Barth for years to come and is thus highly recommended.
This book is a stunning achievement. That a biography of a theologian is so engrossing speaks not only to the kind of life that Barth led, but also to the skill and patience of the biographer.
Victoria Barnett's splendidly fluid translation creates a strong sense of engagement with the narrative from beginning to end.
The book takes an honourable place in introductory works on Barth.
This book is a stunning achievement.
Certainly those who study Barth will receive this text with enormous gratitude. Those new to Barth's life and work, equally, will find here a peerless scholarly biography--one worthy of both its subject and its subject matter.
