Produktbeschreibung
John Webster provides a major scholarly analysis, the first in any language, of the final sections of the Church Dogmatics. He focuses on the theme of human agency in Barth's late ethics and doctrine of baptism, placing the discussion in the context of an interpretation of the Dogmatics as an intrinsically ethical dogmatics. The first two chapters survey the themes of agency, covenant, and human reality in the Dogmatics as a whole; later chapters give a thorough analysis of Church Dogmatics IV/4 and the posthumously published text The Christian Life. A final chapter examines the significance of Barth's work for contemporary accounts of moral selfhood. The book is important not only for a detailed analysis of a neglected part of Barth's oeuvre, but also because it casts into question much of what has hitherto been written about Barth's ethical dogmatics.

Autorenporträt
The word "philosophy" comes from the Greek "love of wisdom." John has a lively curiosity that was fostered during his days studying philosophy at university. He embraces the saying, "Never stop learning." He grew up in Waterloo, Ontario, and his studies and work as a civil litigation lawyer have taken him to wonderful Canadian cities: Montreal, Kingston, Toronto, Oakville and Campbellville. John now lives in Kitchener, Ontario. You can often find him enjoying its trail system, whether along old rail lines, through a forest or along the Grand River. He's married to Sheila and has three adult children: Jeremy, Elise and Alex. John's enjoying life even more after the experiences he writes about in his book.
