Karl Barth: A Future for Postmodern Theology? Christiaan Mostert

What do the colon and the question mark in the title signify? Does the colon denote relatedness or separation? What is the effect of the question mark? Does the interrogative question the future of Karl Barth's approach to theology, make a claim for Barth as a postmodern theologian, or challenge the notion of postmodern theology altogether? These papers pose sharply the question of how the name Karl Barth and the term postmodern relate, or, more pointedly, how or whether theology as understood and practised by Barth and self-declared postmodern theology have anything to do with each other at all.
