A Key to Balthasar: Hans Urs von Balthasar on Beauty, Goodness, and Truth

Aidan OP Nichols

Hans Urs von Balthasar is widely recognized as perhaps the greatest Catholic theologian of the twentieth century. No writer has better revealed the spiritual greatness of the revelation to which the art of the church and the historic liturgies bear witness. Yet students and nonspecialist readers often find Balthasar daunting and difficult. This volume is the ideal introduction to his work. It unlocks the treasure of his theology by focusing on the beautiful, the good, and the true. These are the three qualities of being around which his great trilogy–The Glory of the Lord, Theo-Drama, and Theo-Logic–revolves. Though brief, the book captures the essence of what Balthasar wished to say.
