A Critical Study of Hans Küng's Ecclesiology: From Traditionalism to Modernism"This book charts Hans Kung's transition from traditionalism to modernism, using his work as a vehicle to compare contemporary theology to traditional Christianity. Looking at the traditional signs of the church - unity, catholicity, holiness, and apostolicity in Kung's Structures of the Church (1962) and modern ecclesiology in his On Being a Christian (1974), Simut reconfirms Kung's adherence to a non-traditional understanding of Christianity."--BOOK JACKET. |
