An examination of the Lutheran theology of suffering in the context of the spiritual traditions of Asia.
Martin Luther and Buddhism: Aesthetics of Suffering carefully traces the historical and theological context of Luther’s breakthrough in terms of articulating justification and justice in connection to the Word of God and divine suffering. Chung critically and constructively engages in dialogue with Luther and with later interpreters of Luther such as Barth and Moltmann, placing the Reformer in dialogue not only with Asian spirituality and religions but also with an emerging global theology of religions.
- By (author) Paul S Chung
"After reading I put this book down with great surprise and decided to encourage students and anyone interested in theology in Europe, America and Asia to urgently and repeatedly read it." Jurgen Moltmann, University of Tubingen "... a fascinating attempt to develop an emancipation theology of religions in the Asian context of poverty and suffering as well as of religious plurality." Ulrich Duchrow, University of Heidelberg
