Shortie Posted March 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted March 12, 2016 The Analogy of Faith: The Quest for God's Speakability 2015 | ISBN: 0830840680 | English | 445 pages | PDF | 8 MB If God is transcendent, how can human beings speak meaningfully about him? For centuries philosophers and theologians have asked whether and how it is possible to talk about God. The shared answer to this question goes by the name of "analogy," which recognizes both similarity and difference between the divine being and human language. In the twentieth century, Karl Barth, Erich Przywara, Hans Urs von Balthasar and Eberhard Jngel explored this question in new and controversial ways that continue to shape contemporary debates in theology. In , Archie Spencer examines the problem of analogy in its ancient, medieval and modern forms. He argues for a Christological version of Barths analogy of faith, informed by Jngel's analogy of advent, as the way forward for Protestant theology in answering the problem of God's speakability.
