Surveying important nineteenth- and twentieth-century theologians, primarily in the German tradition, John Wilson provides a thorough introduction to modern theology and those whose work within it helped initiate a new era in Christian theology. Beginning with Immanuel Kant and extending into the present time, Wilson describes the formative theological work of a number of theologians such as Friedrich Schleiermacher, Albrecht Ritschl, Karl Barth, Rudolf Bultmann, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Reinhold Niebuhr, Paul Tillich, Dorothee Solle, and Wolfhart Pannenberg. In so doing he demonstrates the continuities that unite these theologians in a relatively common tradition of theological language. The first chapter is a survey of the social and political background of German theology in the modern period.
