In a brief and stimulating passage, Wenzel presents the fundamental issues of fundamental theology and corresponding perspectives for answers. Drawing on Ricoeur, he inquires into a philosophically justifiable concept of revelation, which leads to the question of the significance of the poetic alongside the conceptual-discursive language. He addresses the differential relationship between faith and religion, and in light of the anthropological turn in theology, he examines the relationship between the subject and the church.
