Unfortunately my visit was too brief and preoccupied to afford the leisure necessary to gain a comprehensive picture of the theological scene In restrospect one feels like a traveller who has enjoyed the view from a few scattered peaks but remains abysmally ignorant of whole tracts of country lying between them. The existence of these unillumined spaces should not be forgotten in the description which follows. Protestant theology on the Continent has always tended to pay more attention than its counterpart in the Anglo-Amerircan world to systematic studies (Dogmatik), and the Switzerland of today iorms no exception. Biblical, exegetical, textual, historical questions are in no way neglected, but attention is focused on the systematic presentation of Christian doctrine in a degree which has no parallel here, and it is no accident that the two greatest Fving Swiss theologians, Barth and Brunner, are each at present engaged in writing a Dogmatik."engWith permission of the license/copyright holderTheologyBiblicalexegeticaltextualhistoricalChristian denominationsBiblical TheologyDogmaticsPractical theology and theological educationArticle
