Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Engaging the theologies of Karl Barth and James H. Cone, this study explores their contrasting approaches to faith—Barth's "from above" perspective against Cone's "from below" stance. Utilizing Thelonious Monk's jazz aesthetic, particularly his tune "Round Midnight," the author reinterprets their theological contributions. This volume emphasizes the interplay between Christ and the social contexts of both theologians, advocating for innovative christological reflections that resonate with Monk's invitation to creatively reinterpret established melodies.
