Symbolism: Exposition of the Doctrinal Differences Between Catholics and Protestants as Evidenced By Their Symbolical Writings (Milestones in Catholic Theology)

The thought of Johann Adam Mohler has had a major impact on the development of Catholic theology in the twentieth century, providing a crucial source of inspiration for theologians such as Karl Rahner and Yves Congar. Symbolism is Mohler's magnum opus and crowning achievement, in which he works through and illuminates central issues in theological anthropology and ecclesiology within the context of a critical dialogue with Protestant theology.
