Description

Rudolf Bultmann (1884-1976) was a voluminous and wide-ranging writer. Best known, perhaps as a New Testament critic, he also contributed to systematic theology, history, philosophy and hermeneutics. His work influenced several generations of Christian theologians, and it still remains worthy of study. This work provides a study of Bultmann's life and work. It explores the historical context of his ideas, and it explains their nature and significance. As well as expounding Bultmann, it also seeks to evaluate his thinking from the perspective of contemporary theology.
