Eberhard Jüngel

While Tübingen theologian Eberhard Jüngel’s theology remains broadly influential in Continental Europe, his work has largely been overlooked by Anglo-American readers interested in modern Protestantism. There are, however, signs that this trend is changing, as several dissertations, specialist monographs, and popular blog-sites have appeared recently that are devoted to Jüngel’s thought. There is thus a growing audience for the proposed study, which will be the first up-to-date, English-language, general introduction to Jüngel’s theology to appear in three decades. Nelson offers an interpretation of Jüngel’s theology that is unique.
