This collection certainly provides, as [Mawson and Ziegler] write, ‘a new and invaluable basis for a re-assessment of the corpus as a whole’.

Reviews in Religion and Theology

[A] rich collection of essays.

The Expository Times

Bonhoeffer studies is at an exciting juncture. With the completion of the seventeen volume critical edition of the <i>Dietrich Bonhoeffer Werke </i>in German and English, a new generation of scholars is reassessing his work with new eyes. They are finding him to be an invaluable interlocutor even given contemporary developments in theological and ethical debate. This next stage of Bonhoeffer scholarship requires deep textual analysis alongside critical and creative appropriation. These essays should be our guide.

A brilliant and well edited collection of essays that touch on the topics at the heart of both current and historic Bonhoeffer research.

For readers looking for guides through the bewildering array of interpretations of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's life and thought, they could not do better than the group of scholars represented in this volume. These essays put into historical and intellectual context the import of Bonhoeffer's work for our own time and place. I would particularly recommend it for those teaching classes and seminars on the continuing legacy and relevance of Bonhoeffer in the twenty-first century.
