Paul Matthews van Buren

Ellen T. Charry

pp. 443-457

Considered one of the original death of God theologians, Paul M. van Buren was an Episcopal priest whose radical work was The Secular Meaning of the Gospel. Van Buren's legacy, however, was to dissociate himself from the death of God theology and developed serious theological work in the field of Christian-Jewish relations. At the same time, important themes emerge when considering his lifetime of writing which are concurrent with other radical thinkers, namely, emphases upon the holocaust, the limitation of language, and a novel approach to interpreting the theology of Karl Barth.
