Klaas Schilder Reader, The: The Essential Theological Writings
Ā
Klaas Schilder (1890ā1952) was a prominent Dutch Reformed theologian in the early twentieth century, first as a pastor and then as a professor. While his fame spread to North America in the 1940s, he is mostly forgotten today. InĀ The Klaas Schilder Reader: The Essential Theological Writings, readers will rediscover this important Dutch theologian.
Working in the tradition of Abraham Kuyper and Herman Bavinck, Schilder applies Dutch Neo-Calvinism to the twentieth century. This includes secularism, the rise and influence of Karl Barth, opposition to Nazism, and the relation between the church and society.Ā The Klaas Schilder ReaderĀ contextualizes his work and furthers the neo-Calvinist tradition.
