About the Author:

Helmut Richard Niebuhr (1894–1962) is considered one of the most important Christian theological ethicists in 20th-century America, best known for his 1951 book Christ and Culture and his posthumously published book The Responsible Self. The younger brother of theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, Richard Niebuhr taught for several decades at the Yale Divinity School. Both brothers were, in their day, important figures in the neo-orthodox theological school within American Protestantism. His theology (together with that of his colleague at Yale, Hans Wilhelm Frei) has been one of the main sources of postliberal theology, sometimes called the "Yale school". He influenced such figures as James GustafsonStanley Hauerwas, and Gordon Kaufman.

Hungarian Summary:

Krisztus és kultúra – két fő eligazodási pont a hit és az erkölcs, a keresztény élet számára. Egymásra hatásuk a kezdetektől fogva számos problémát vetett fel és sok feszültséget hordozott, hiszen maga az Isten Fia is egy bizonyos kor vallásos kultúrájának gyermeke volt, és az általa alapított egyház földi működése természeténél fogva kulturális jellegű is. Niebuhr a kapcsolatukról kialakított öt alapállást írja le, részletesen elemezve ezek tartalmát, előnyeit és buktatóit, emellett kitér az adott irányzat legjelentősebb képviselőire is. Az összegző fejezet kiemeli, hogy nem létezik „a” keresztyén válasz, mindig az adott helyzetben kell állást foglalni, megismerve és mérlegelve azt, ahová mások eljutottak.

English Summary:

Being fully God and fully human, Jesus raised an enduring question for his followers: what exactly was His place in this world? In the classic Christ and Culture, H. Richard Niebuhr crafted a magisterial survey of the many ways of answering that question--and the related question of how Christ's followers understand their own place in the world. Niebuhr called the subject of this book "the double wrestle of the church with its Lord and with the cultural society with which it lives in symbiosis." And he described various understandings of Christ "against," "of," and "above" culture, as well as Christ "transforming" culture, and Christ in "paradoxical" relation to it. This 50th anniversary edition of Christ and Culture, with a foreword by theologian Martin E. Marty, is not easy reading. But it remains among the most gripping articulations of what is arguably the most basic ethical question of the Christian faith: how is Christ relevant to the world in which we live now? --Michael Joseph Gross
