The Trinity and Creation in Karl Barth
Any shortcomings of Karl Barth's view of the relationship between God and creation should not obscure the fact that his Chuch Dogmatics establishes the doctrine of the Trinity as central to the church's theological agenda. Gordon Watson proposes that the Trinity, as a basic hermeneutical key, needs to be understood as expressing the language and the structure of the church's liturgical experience. In this context, the relationship between God and the creation takes into full account God's free condescension as Creator and Reconciler as well as the created integrity of the creature. The Eastern church's trinitarian vision clarifies and resolves the theological inadequacies of Barth's presentation. The author was a student of TF Torrance and a previous version of this book was among a select few books higlighted by Torrance in the Preface to his second edition of Karl Barth: An Introduction to his Early Theology. Watson taught Systematic Theology for many years in Brisbane and has contributed numerous articles to the Scottish Journal of Theology.

This authoritative book introducing Karl Barth is written by leading scholars of his work, drawn from Europe and North America. They offer challenging yet accessible accounts of the major features of Barth's theological work, especially as it has become available through the publication of his collected works, and interact with the very best of contemporary Barth scholarship. The contributors also assess Barth's significance for contemporary constructive theology, and his place in the history of twentieth-century Christian thought. The Companion both sums up and extends recent renewed interest in Barth's theology, especially in English-speaking theology, and shows him to be once again a major voice in constructive theology.

A lively debate has been heating up among some of the foremost authorities on Karl Barth as they seek to answer a crucial point of contention: Is the Trinity complete in itself from all eternity or is it constituted by the eternal decision of election? Trinity and Election in Contemporary Theology offers a collection of essays that seek to address this question through rigorous and critical treatment of select topics in the theology of Karl Barth by contemporary interpreters from both Protestant and Roman Catholic perspectives.
