Document Details : Title: De weg van de theologie bij Piet Schoonenberg Author(s): RIKHOF, Herwi Journal: Bijdragen Volume: 73 Issue: 4 Date: 2012 Pages: 353-370 DOI: 10.2143/BIJ.73.4.2959711 Abstract : Piet Schoonenberg S.J. (1911-1999) was one of the most prominent theologians to the last century. His dissertation was never published during his life-time. As part of a dissertation project J. Mettepenningen has published a text-critical edition, since Schoonenberg had to rewrite his 1948 conclusions; in 1951 he presented a new text. This final text is published separately. The publication of this first major work by Schoonenberg on the method of theology can serve well as the starting point for a reconstruction of Schoonenbergs chemin de la theologie, the development of his views on the task of theology. As the end of such a reconstruction the methodological reflections of his final publication are used. It appears that the decisions Schoonenberg takes in his dissertation – decisions that were partly responsible for the non-publication – can rightly be seen as the foundation for his later theology. |
