Karl Barth - Die Liebe - "αγαπε" (1962) - Barth's last academic lecture

Karl Barth's theology has exercised its effect in the most varied of directions with the means of the printed word. But it was only able to do this because, first and foremost, as a spoken word, it had the opportunity to try it out among listeners and fellow thinkers who were directly involved. It has been felt again and again in what original way Karl Barth was not only a theological writer, but first and foremost a theological teacher who tried to give his reflections and findings their valid linguistic form in academic teaching. That is why it makes sense to let Barth's voice speak in a direct way: to those who heard him earlier than his pupils and students, but also to those who did not have the opportunity to hear this.

The speech plate displayed here provides a direct recording that Radio Basel made of Barth's last academic lecture on March 1, 1962 in the auditorium of the University of Basel. The lecture concludes a series that was published by EVZ-Verlag under the title * Introduction to Protestant Theology *. Her title is * Die Liebe *; it develops the proposition that theological work is only there, but there is certainly a good work, where it can be done in love and is done with determination.

Karl Barth, born in Basel in 1886, studied theology and philosophy in Bern, Berlin, Tübingen and Marburg. In addition to his father, the church historian Fritz Barth, his teachers were Adolf Schlatter, Adolf Harnack, Wilhelm Herrmann and the neo-Kantians Herman Cohen and Paul Natrop, he was pastor from 1909 to 1921, his famous interpretation of the Epistle to the Romans, published in 1919, had an upheaval in theology. She earned him a call as an academic teacher, first in Göttingen, then in Munster and Bonn. As co-editor of * Zwischen den Zeiten * (1923-1933) he was the most important representative of the * dialectical * theology gathered around this journal, in 1935 Karl Barth was dismissed from Bonn University for refusing to take the unconditional leadership oath. He went to Basel, but remained in close contact with the Confessing Church; He was a leading collaborator in their synods and father of the * Barmer Declaration * His main work * The Church Dogmatics * is perhaps the most significant systematic * theological thought achievement in the 20th century.
