jd472v2642b	Jennifer Newsome Martin	Hans Urs von Balthasar and the Press of Speculative Russian Religious Philosophy	2012		.txt	text/plain	325	6	-5	It is the burden of this study to demonstrate, as evidenced by his critical excavation of the Russians, that Balthasar's own theological method can' contravening the opinion of some of his critics' be characterized as quintessentially non-nostalgic, structurally hospitable to non-theological categories, non-canonic sources, and modes of speculative thinking which probe, but do not exceed the elastic boundaries of tradition. Thematic, theological, and methodological affinities between Balthasar and the Russians include a shared broad-mindedness toward navigating between the ancient Christian tradition and modern philosophical developments, a variously critical reception of German Idealism and Romanticism, and in focused treatment of the relation of God and world, immanence and transcendence, freedom and necessity, as well as kenoticism, eschatology, Trinity, history, pneumatology, cosmology, and aesthetics.	cache/jd472v2642b.txt	txt/jd472v2642b.txt
