<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Dietrich Bonhoeffer was one of the most important thinkers of the twentieth century. His Life Together and Discipleship are considered to be spiritual classics, and few theological works have made as much of an impact as Letters and Papers from Prison upon publication. But who actually is this Bonhoeffer? Do we really know him? In this magisterial collection, leading international scholars discuss and critically interact with the ways in which a variety of significant figures have engaged with Bonhoeffers thought since his death.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Engaging Bonhoeffer </b>documents the extraordinary impact of Dietrich Bonhoeffers life and writing on later thought. Despite his lasting legacy, little substantial scholarship has been conducted in this area. In this magisterial collection, leading international scholars fill this striking gap and critically demonstrate the ways in which Bonhoeffer has been one of the most original, inspirational, and provocative writers of the twentieth century.</p><p>Bonhoeffers work has proved foundational for a wide variety of thinkers and movements across such areas as ecclesiology, Christology, spirituality, ethics, hermeneutics, phenomenology, epistemology, and systematic theology more generally. Whether one considers his writings to have been faithfully interpreted, critically adopted or justifiably rejected, <b>Engaging Bonhoeffer</b> describes those who have engaged with Bonhoeffers work, been inspired by his actions, and found a way to express and explain their own ideas through interacting with his life and thought. In addition to shedding light on the different theological trajectories that Bonhoeffers work may forge, this challenging volume offers a critical window through which to view and appreciate the ideas of many leading voices of modern theology. </p>
