THEOLOGIAN - CHRISTIAN - MAN FOR HIS TIMES
The authoritative biography, fully revised and enlarged
"Here is a twentieth-century Christian martyr's life faithfuIly and passionately rendered-a gift to aIl of us who so very much admire Bonhoeffer and dearly love him for aIl he embodied in his generous and grave person."
- Robert Coles, Agee Professor of Social Ethics, Graduate School of Education, Harvard University
"No one doubts that Eberhard Bethge's biography has been indispensable to Bonhoeffer studies from the day of publication. Fortress Press is to be congratulated for bringing it back in this complete and updated edition."
- Larry Rasmussen, Reinhold Niebuhr Professor of Social Ethics, Union Theological Seminary
"Some words Gorky used about Tolstoy come into my mind : 'Look what a wonderful man is living on this earth !' His unflinching death in 1945 at the hands of the Gestapo ; his uplifting Letters and Papers from Prison, written during the two years he spent in confinement ; the great influence he exerted posthumously on Christian thought and endeavor ; above an, the high spiritual quality of his life, writings, human relationships and death, aIl mark him out as an outstanding twentieth-century Christian. Now his friend, pupil, close associate and relative by marriage, Eberhard Bethge, has produced a monumental study of him which will surely stand as the definitive and authoritative work on the subject. Reading it is more than just a fascinating exploration of a hero of our time. It is, as weIl, a spiritual experience."
