Barth, Karl

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Barth, Karl (1886-1968)

Swiss Protestant theologian. A socialist in his political views, he attacked the Nazis. His Church Dogmatics (1932-62) makes the resurrection of Jesus the focal point of Christianity.

Barth is generally considered the greatest Christian theologian of the 20th century. His Theology of Crisis rejected liberal theology and stressed Scripture and the infinite gulf that separates God from humanity, which can be overcome only by the grace of God.
