Theo Drama by Hans Urs Von Balthasar

Theological Dramatic Theory

A wide-ranging theological meditation that reads salvation history as a divine drama in which God and humanity meet: it treats Christ as the decisive protagonist, explores how freedom, suffering, beauty, and glory interplay in the unfolding of revelation, and develops an aesthetic theology showing how truth is revealed through dramatic contrasts and tensions. The work examines spectatorship, knotty moral and ecclesial dilemmas, and the eschatological climax of history, arguing that the story of redemption must be understood both as a risky, participatory event and as a consummation that manifests God’s glory in love.
