Hans Vium Mikkelsen is associate professor at the Center for Theology and Religious Education, Denmark. He is the author of many scholarly articles on Barth and contemporary theology and several books in Danish.
"An important contribution to contemporary theology by one of
Europe's finest young theologians. Hans Vium Mikkelsen's dynamic
rereading of Barth looks beyond the Swiss giant, and the enduring
questions he raised, to discover new answers for a new
generation."
-- William Stacy Johnson
Princeton Theological Seminary "Mikkelsen's passionate reading of
Barth serves, as he says, 'to show how vital a dialogue partner
Barth is for contemporary theology.' But this seemingly
straightforward proposal leads to a significant widening of
conventional approaches to the author of the Church Dogmatics.
While always staying close to Barth's text, Mikkelsen shows how
that same text can be opened up for fruitful dialogue. . . . This
book will encourage students who might be put off by Barth's
apparent dogmatic certitude to take a freer and more open approach
to what remains one of the twentieth century's defining
contributions to Christian thought."
-- George Pattison
