SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This is the first book length assessment in English of the impact of Karl Barth's theology in Britain. Beginning with the essays of Adolf Keller and H.R. Mackintosh in the 1920's, it analyses the interplay between Barth's developing thought and different strands of English, Scottish and Welsh church history up to the 1980's. Barth's impact on British perceptions of the German Church Struggle during the 1930's is discussed, along with the ready acceptance that his theology gained among the English Congregationalists, Welsh Nonconformists and theologians of the Church of Scotland. Half forgotten name.
