One of the most significant theologians of our time speaks about his life and his ways of thinking: In a conversation with the Italian theologian Fulvio Ferrario, Eberhard Jüngel provides an overview of the theology of the second half of the 20th century while also offering a fascinating narrative introduction to his own work. From the discovery of the Gospel and the church as a space of freedom—the only place where one could speak the truth without hesitation in the oppressive climate of East Germany—his journey leads to a prestigious professorship in Systematic Theology in Tübingen. It is with a passion for faith and a lively intellectual curiosity that Eberhard Jüngel engages with theological and political developments, such as student unrest, liberation theology, and secularization. In the conversation, friendships with Karl Barth and Ernst Fuchs come alive once more.
