English summary: What part did Martin Luther, Georg Buchner, Friedrich Nietzsche, Franz Kafka, Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer play in shaping the character of modernity? Which aspects of their thinking transcend the modern age? Approaching his subject from this angle, Michael Trowitzsch searches for a transitional theology. In doing so, he extends the study of the history of the problem to include fundamental observations on the current situation in theology, showing that the modern quest for power as a structural law of the modern age can be overcome. German description: Inwiefern haben Martin Luther, Georg Buchner, Friedrich Nietzsche, Franz Kafka, Karl Barth und Dietrich Bonhoeffer das Bild der Moderne mitgestaltet? Welche Aspekte ihres Denkens weisen entscheidend uber die Neuzeit hinaus? Unter diesen Gesichtspunkten sucht Michael Trowitzsch nach einer Theologie im Ubergang. Dabei erweitert er die problemgeschichtliche Untersuchung zu grundsatzlichen Uberlegungen zur gegenwartigen Situation der Theologie. Er zeigt, dass das moderne Streben nach Macht als Strukturgesetz der Neuzeit gebrochen werden kann.
