" Selected as a 2021 Book of the Year by Alan Billings, Church Times" "Tietz's book is outstanding: her chapter-length summary of Barth's monumental, multi-volume 'Church Dogmatics' (1932-67), theologically the cornerstone and pinnacle of his achievement, is among the best short treatments of it I have read." -- Stephen J. Plant, Times Literary Supplement "Tietz provides a sound and useful orientation to Barth's life and work." -- Michael Banner, The Tablet "Tietz uses an impressive array of primary sources such as letters to his friend Eduard Thurneysen to chart Barth's life." -- Paul Richardson, Church of England Newspaper "Remarkable ... meticulously researched and thoroughly referenced... [it] will become a standard text for all engaging with Barth's theology for generations to come." -- Natalie Watson, Church Times "Karl Barth's life story is worth telling. Or, better still, worth reading. A new biography, Karl Barth: A Life in Conflict by Christiane Tietz, tells it well... It is a compelling read." -- Neil Richardson, Methodist Recorder "Very readable and accessible... Tietz's biography is a good entry into [Barth's] life and thought." -- Richard A. Kauffman, Christian Century "[Tietz] is a reliable guide to her academic grandfather and the biography functions as a sound, accessible introduction to Barth's thought." -- R. R. Reno, First Things "[The book] reads smoothly but with the kind of clarity that is symptomatic of the best kind of academic work. In other words, the book is highly readable yet very much built on a reliable foundation... Tietz's work is diligent and insightful. I suspect her book will become the standard biography of Karl Barth for some time. For students of Barth's theology, it is indispensable." -- Stephen D. Morrison, "... Tietz's primary achievement here is surely to map the intellectual development of Barth and to locate that contextually within the political circumstances that surrounded him." -- Kevin Hargaden, Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice, Studies in Christian Ethics "Tietz has written a readable and meticulously researched biography of Karl Barth (1886-1968). She integrates Barth's life and work, and a very ''human'' Karl Barth emerges." -- D.K. McKim, CHOICE Connect, Vol. 59 No. 8 " Selected as a 2021 Book of the Year by Alan Billings, Church Times" "Tietz's book is outstanding: her chapter-length summary of Barth's monumental, multi-volume 'Church Dogmatics' (1932-67), theologically the cornerstone and pinnacle of his achievement, is among the best short treatments of it I have read." -- Stephen J. Plant, Times Literary Supplement "Tietz provides a sound and useful orientation to Barth's life and work." -- Michael Banner, The Tablet "Christiane Tietz compellingly explores the interactions between Barth's personal and political biography and his theology... an evocative portrait of a theologian" -- , Englewood Review of Books "Tietz uses an impressive array of primary sources such as letters to his friend Eduard Thurneysen to chart Barth's life." -- Paul Richardson, Church of England Newspaper "Remarkable ... meticulously researched and thoroughly referenced...

Penner, Reviews in Religion and Theology "Tietz's work will be another standard biographical treatment of Barth for years to come and is thus highly recommended." -- Ximian Xu, Journal of Reformed Theology "This book is a stunning achievement. That a biography of a theologian is so engrossing speaks not only to the kind of life that Barth led, but also to the skill and patience of the biographer." -- Declan Kelly, Rezension Kelly Journal of Ecclesiastical History, "Tietz's book is outstanding: her chapter-length summary of Barth's monumental, multi-volume 'Church Dogmatics' (1932-67), theologically the cornerstone and pinnacle of his achievement, is among the best short treatments of it I have read." -- Stephen J.

Morrison "Christiane Tietz has done exemplary well in composing a thoroughly broad and yet deep investigation' We further believe this biography will be the standard biography on Barth for many years to come." -- Bradley M. Penner, Reviews in Religion and Theology "Tietz's work will be another standard biographical treatment of Barth for years to come and is thus highly recommended." -- Ximian Xu, Journal of Reformed Theology "This book is a stunning achievement. That a biography of a theologian is so engrossing speaks not only to the kind of life that Barth led, but also to the skill and patience of the biographer." -- Declan Kelly, Rezension Kelly Journal of Ecclesiastical History

Synopsis
Christiane Tietz relates Karl Barth's fascinating life in conflict - conflict with the theological mainstream, against National Socialism, and privately, under one roof with his wife and his mistress, in conflict with himself., From the beginning of his career, Swiss theologian Karl Barth (1886-1969) was often in conflict with the spirit of his times. While during the First World War German poets and philosophers became intoxicated by the experience of community and transcendence, Barth fought against all attempts to locate the divine in culture or individual sentiment. This freed him for a deep worldly engagement: he was known as "the red pastor," was the primary author of the founding document of the Confessing Church, the Barmen Theological Declaration, and after 1945 protested the rearmament of the Federal Republic of Germany. Christiane Tietz compellingly explores the interactions between Barth's personal and political biography and his theology. Numerous newly-available documents offer insight into the lesser-known sides of Barth such as his long-term three-way relationship with his wife Nelly and his colleague Charlotte von Kirschbaum. This is an evocative portrait of a theologian who described himself as '"God's cheerful partisan"' who was honored as a prophet and a genial spirit, was feared as a critic, and shaped the theology of an entire century as no other thinker., From the beginning of his career, Swiss theologian Karl Barth (1886-1968) was often in conflict with the spirit of his times.

      More underlining in ink than I was led to believe. The book arrived promptly.
