Reihe: Guides for the Perplexed

This introduction to De Lubac provides an overview of the whole of twentieth century French catholic theology.

Because of this breadth of interest, De Lubac’s work extends beyond narrow theological boundaries.
Henri de Lubac is a dominating figure in the renewal of catholic theology in the twentieth century, opposing neo-Thomist orthodoxy with a pluriform and historical notion of tradition based on the creative reappropriation of patristic sources.
