Symbolism

Symbolism

by Johann Adam Möhler

Johann Adam Möhler's "Symbolism" is a foundational work in Catholic theology, particularly in the context of the 19th-century Catholic-Protestant debate. This book, written by a prominent theologian of his time, delves into core Christian doctrines, focusing on the differences in understanding of original sin, grace, and free will between Catholic and Protestant traditions. Möhler, drawing on the philosophical framework of Hegel, challenges Protestant interpretations of these doctrines, arguing for a more robust and nuanced understanding of Catholic teachings. "Symbolism" ignited significant controversy in its time, and continues to be relevant today for anyone seeking to understand the historical and theological tensions between these two major branches of Christianity.
