Le christianisme comme style, 1
Christoph Theobald - Collection Cogitatio Fidei
Résumé
--
The project to express the Christian identity in terms of 'style' is not a new one Friedrich Schleiermacher and Hans Urs von Balthasar both succeeded, the first with a hermeneutic approach, the second in the context of theological phenomenology. The concept of 'style' permits us to think the uniqueness of an oeuvre the 'allure' which does not emanate from a classifying comparison but from the manifestation of an incomparable unity and a veritable innovation. 'All style is an arrangement of elements of the world that allows us to orient them towards one of their essential parts' (Maurice Merleau-Ponty). In this sense, the stylistic approach to Christianity avoids reducing it to its doctrinal teaching, and permits us to honour the ensemble of Christian life as a way of living in the world. There appears in filigree the principle of concordance between contents and form, imperative to characterise the stylistic quality of a work and easily applicable to the question of the credibility of the Christian faith. As the sub-title indicates, this work advances simultaneously on two planes: a theological diagnostic of the present moment in relation with our debates on modernity and post modernity, and, intimately linked to that evolution, an epistemological reflection on a way of practicing theology. After an Overture which exposes the ensemble of the 'thematic', the first part is devoted to a diagnostic (I), the second and the third to a way of practicing theology linked to the spiritual tradition of Christianity (II) and based on the reading of the Scriptures (III). These are two planes, interior and exterior, of the same Christian presence in our history, referred to by the terminology of 'style': Christianity as a style, fully explained in the final part (IV).
