How does the contemporary reader make sense of the life and writings of such an icon as Dietrich Bonhoeffer? The essays in this volume seek to address this question by carefully examining the social, cultural, religious and intellectual locations that inform the Sitz im Leben of a vast readership of Bonhoeffer. The focus of each of the essays is thus on the task of articulating and clarifying a hermeneutically self-conscious and responsible approach to interpreting and understanding Bonhoeffer. The authors come from widely divergent backgrounds, both geographically and intellectually, and therefore offer a wide spectrum of dialogue. Methods and approaches examined in the essays discuss themes such as gender, religion, race, ecology, politics, philosophy, literature among others.
Peter Frick is Associate Professor and Academic Dean at St. Paul’s University College, University of Waterloo. He is interested in theology, philosophy and biblical studies. His recent books are: A Dialogue with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Collected Essays (2009) and the edited works Bonhoeffer’s Intellectual Formation (2008), Dietrich Bonhoeffer: Meditation and Prayer (2010) and Paul in the Grip of Continental Philosophers (2013).
