    Sang M. Lee untersucht das kosmische Heils-Drama, das Paulus in seinen (unbestrittenen) Schriften offen legt. Unter Verwendung der beiden Dreh- und Angelpunkte der paulinischen Theologie - Anthropologie und Kosmologie - zeigt der Autor auf, wie sich Gottes Heilsdrama in der narrativen Welt des Paulus als Gegenpart zur intellektuellen Welt der jüdisch-hellenistischen Traditionen entwickelt

    This article describes the basic elements of the theological research program. The first part raises the question about the rationality of theological statements. Based on Lakatos and agreeing to a large extent with Pannenberg (and partly also with Murphy) the article claims that from the viewpoint of philosophy of science theological statements have to be seen as hypotheses, which must be indirectly proven by long-term experience. – The second part outlines the basic elements of a concrete research program, in which – using again Lakatos – three levels are distinguished: 1) general framework; 2) hard core; 3) auxiliary hypotheses. The hard core consists in the hypothesis that God's acting in the world has to be interpreted as the enabling of human beings to attain true and lasting reconciliation without relying on common enemies or scapegoats. The theory of René Girard is used as an auxiliary hypothesis to deal with questions in the fields of anthropology, sociology and religious studies. Teilhard de Chardin's view is used as a provisional hypothesis to connect the hard core with the theory of evolution and other scientific data.

    "Swiss theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar (1905-1988) originated much of twentieth- and twenty-first-century theology's renewed interest in aesthetics. Von Balthasar's theology is both poetic and philosophical, and while this combination is often recognized, it calls for an explanation. In Theo-Poetics: Hans Urs von Balthasar and the Risk of Art and Being, Anne M. Carpenter explores von Balthasar's use of poetry and poetic language, and she offers a detailed analysis of his philosophical presuppositions. Carpenter argues that von Balthasar uses poets and poetic language to make theological arguments because this poetic way of speaking expresses metaphysical truth without reducing one to the other. Carpenter begins with von Balthasar's very early interests in music, literature, and philosophy, in particular his work, Apocalypse of the German Soul. She explores Glory of the Lord and the trilogy, moving through his despair over the possibility of reconciling art and theology. She uncovers the major characteristics of von Balthasar's metaphysical thinking, discussing his interactions with Thomas Aquinas, Karl Barth, and Martin Heidegger to firmly link Christology, metaphysics, and the expressiveness of language. The book concludes by marshaling its themes into a focused evaluation of von Balthasar's "redeemed" theo-poetic as it comes to expression in the poetry of G. M. Hopkins. Carpenter resituates and reevaluates Hopkins's poetry in a new context, placing him in the school of Aquinas rather than Scotus, and shows us how metaphysics is necessary for a vigorous understanding of language. "Anne M. Carpenter turns a lot of difficult and abstruse research about Hans Urs von Balthasar in the scholarly literature into a lively and readable book. The volume achieves the goal of explaining the poetic form of von Balthasar's writing, tracing it back to the centrality of the concept of expression in his philosophical theology.
