Sommario/riassunto |
|
In his Autobiography, Gandhi wrote, "What I want to achieve - what I have been striving and pining to achieve these thirty years - is self-realization, to see God face to face. ... All that I do by way of speaking and writing, and all my ventures in the political field, are directed to this same end." While hundreds of biographies and histories have been written about Gandhi (1869-1948), nearly all of them have focused on the national, political, social, economic, educational, environmental, or familial dimensions of his life. Very few, in recounting how Gandhi led his country to political freedom, have viewed his struggle primarily as a search of spiritual liberation. Shifting the focus to the understudied subject of Gandhi's spiritual life, Arvind Sharma retells the story of Gandhi's life through this lens. Illuminating unsuspected dimensions of |

Gandhi's inner world and uncovering their surprising connections with his outward actions, Sharma explores the eclectic religious atmosphere in which Gandhi was raised, his belief in karma and rebirth, his conviction that morality and religion are synonymous, his attitudes toward tyranny and freedom, and, perhaps most important, the mysterious source of his power to establish new norms of human conduct. This book enlarges our understanding of one of history's most profoundly influential figures, a man whose trust in the power of the spirit helped liberate millions. |

Jahrhunderts. Er hat wie kein anderer und bereits Jahrzehnte vor Karl Barth einerseits die absolute Majestät und schlechthinnige Überlegenheit Gottes über alle endliche Wirklichkeit herausgestellt und die theozentrische Orientierung der Theologie gefordert. Andererseits betont Schaeder zugleich die durch den Empfang des Heiligen Geistes sich jetzt ereignende radikale Veränderung und effektive Neukonstituierung des menschlichen Seins.Die vorliegende Studie bietet zunächst eine intellektuelle Biographie dieses in Vergessenheit geratenen Theologen. Daran anschließend wird die Theologie Schaeders auf der Basis seiner Schriften entfaltet, wobei Schaeders pneumatologischer Entwurf als das systematische Zentrum seiner Theologie interpretiert wird. Die Beschäftigung mit der harschen Kritik Barths dient dann dazu, die Darstellung zu profilieren. Kommentierende und weiterführende Thesen stellen schließlich die aktuelle Relevanz von Schaeders Pneumatologie heraus.In der vorliegenden Studie wird nicht weniger geboten als eine Leben und Werk umfassende Gesamtdarstellung der Theologie Schaeders. |
Erich Schaeder (1861–1936) is a largely forgotten theologian of the 20th century. By examining Schaeder’s works, this study explores how he integrated the reality and power of the Holy Spirit as part of the foundation of theological work, preserving at the same time God’s absolute majesty and unparalleled proximity. Barth’s harsh critique serves to clarify the presentation. |
