The Fragility of Language and the Encounter with God
Drawing on recent philosophical developments in hermeneutics and poststructuralism, The Fragility of Language and the Encounter with God offersÊa theological account of the contingency of language and perception and of how acknowledging that contingency transforms the perennial theological question of the development of doctrine. Klug applies this account to humanity's encounter with God and its translation into language. Because there exists no neutral epistemological standpoint, Klug integrates contemporary insights on the theory of the subject (especially those of _i_ek and Badiou) and presents humanity as a subject that transforms its experience of and with God into language and places ...
Synodality
Synodality envisions a new way of proceeding in the Church: toward a coresponsible and participatory Church for the third millennium. It is an ecclesial model that calls for the recognition of laity as full subjects in the Church.
Righting Relations after the Holocaust and Vatican II

Jesus in John's Gospel
The culmination of a lifetime of work on the Gospel of John, William Loader's Jesus in John's Gospel explores the Fourth Gospel with a focus on ways in which attention to the structure of Christology in John allows for greater understanding of Johannine themes and helps resolve long-standing interpretive impasses. Following an introductory examination of Rudolf Bultmann's profound influence on Johannine studies, Loader turns to the central interpretive issues and debates surrounding Johannine Christology, probing particularly the death of Jesus in John, the salvation event in John, and the Fourth Gospel in light of its Christology. The exhaustive bibliography and careful, well-articulated conclusions take into account the latest research on John, ensuring that this volume will be useful to scholars and students alike.

Synodale Communio
Was meint Papst Franziskus damit, dass die Synodalität das sei, was Gott sich von der Kirche im dritten Jahrtausend erwarte? Und welches Kirchenverständnis bildet hierfür die Basis? Im Zuge der Bemühungen der deutschen Bischöfe, der Forderung nach mehr "Synodalität" zu entsprechen, kommen diesbezüglich immer wieder Zweifel auf. Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert die päpstlichen Äußerungen zum Thema "Synodalität" (2013–2022) und ordnet sie ein in das Raster "Concilium vs. Communio" (Küng – Ratzinger). Dabei zeigt sich, dass das zugrundeliegende Kirchenverständnis von Papst Franziskus eine eucharistische Communio-Ekklesiologie ist, wie sie maßgeblich von Joseph Ratzinger vorgelegt und vom Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzil gelehrt wurde. Synodalität beschreibt ihren praktischen Vollzug.
55 Years of Struggle for Women's Ordination in the Catholic Church
55 years of struggle for women's ordination in the Roman Catholic Church - this lifelong effort by the theologian Ida Raming - together with her pioneering compatriots, some of whom have passed away - are described in this documentation. She is deeply convinced that a fundamental renewal of the church can only be achieved together with women who are no longer subject to discrimination - and not without them. Beginning with the Vatican Council (1962 - 1965), this endeavor has stretched across several phases of church history all the way into the present. Numerous documents bearing witness to internal church developments, conflicts and international movements are related in a vivid, gripping manner from the perspective of the author. The international Women Priests Movement (RCWP/ARCWP), its inception and development, is also described in this context. This documentation offers an excellent aid in studying the epoch of church history dating from 1962.
The Cross in the Johannine Writings
This book offers a rigorous analysis of the theme of "the cross" in the Johannine literature. After reviewing previous scholarship on the issue, Morgan-Wynne examines evidence that prima facie suggests that the evangelist, while maintaining the role of Jesus as revealer of the Father in his incarnate ministry, also saw something decisive for the salvation of human beings happening in the cross. Having established this, the work looks at John's understanding of sin and his concept of the purpose shared by the Father and Jesus, before reflecting on themes associated with the meaning of the cross. Of special importance is John 12, which connects the cross to the judgment of the world, the ejection of Satan, and the drawing of all to Jesus. The author examines what John considers to have been objectively achieved at the cross. A further section examines the meaning of the death of Jesus in the Epistle of 1 John, seen as the work of someone different from the evangelist but belonging to the same Johannine circle. The similarities and differences between Letter and Gospel are explored.
