No Bloodless Myth: A Guide through Balthasar's Dramatics

By Aidan Nichols

Book Overview

Following his acclaimed The Word Has Been Abroad: A Guide Through Balthasar's Aesthetics , No Bloodless Myth by Aidan Nichols summarizes and illuminates the five-volume series Theo-Drama , which develops the heart of Balthasar's theological theory-his exploration of the Good and of the dramatic interplay of finite and infinite freedom. Theo-Drama builds upon the earlier achievement of The Glory of the Lord and transcends it, opening up new horizons for theological and cultural reflection in the twenty-first century. Aidan Nichols's succinct commentary enables the reader to grasp the main themes of one of the most important theological works in several generations.
