Theses Towards A Trinitarian Ontology by Klaus Hemmerle

Written in 1975 as a birthday greeting to the theologian Hans Urs von Balthasar, Klaus Hemmerle's Theses Towards A Trinitarian Ontology is of the highest theological moment as a key source text for the recent widespread interest in the idea of a Trinitarian ontology. Drawing on Hemmerle's deep familiarity with German Idealism, the Theses sketch an ontology beginning not from invariance, but from self-giving, from kenosis, and articulate a distinctively Trinitarian response to the aporias of early twenty-first-century thought-a response for which only Love can credibly be understood as the meaning of Being.

Hemmerle, Klaus: - KLAUS HEMMERLE (1929-1994) taught theology and philosophy at Freiburg, Bonn, and Bochum, and was then Bishop of Aachen from 1975 until his death. A church leader of great spiritual gifts, Hemmerle was a leading member of the Focolare movement.
