Bonhoeffer

Meer over het boek

Exploring the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, this analysis delves into his dual legacy as a theologian and conspirator against Hitler. It critically examines his writings on the concept of the 'extraordinary,' especially in the context of Carl Schmitt's 'state of exception.' Through the lens of Sören Kierkegaard, the book raises questions about discipleship and obedience to divine command. Petra Brown challenges the simplistic admiration for Bonhoeffer's actions, highlighting the complex and potentially perilous implications of his political theology.
