The materials gathered and selected by his friend Eberhard Bethge in \u003cb\u003eLetters and Papers from Prison\u003c\/b\u003e not only brought Bonhoeffer to a wide and appreciative readership, especially in North America, they also introduced to a broad readership his novel and exciting ideas of religionless Christianity, his open and honest theological appraisal of Christian doctrines, and his sturdy, if sorely tried, faith in face of uncertainty and doubt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis splendid volume, in many ways the capstone of the \u003ci\u003eDietrich Bonhoeffer Works\u003c\/i\u003e, is the first unabridged collection of Bonhoeffer's 19431945 prison letters and theological writings. Here are over 200 documents that include extensive correspondence with his family and Eberhard Bethge (much of it in English for the first time), as well as his theological notes, and his prison poems. The volume offers an illuminating introduction by editor John de Gruchy and an historical Afterword by the editors of the original German volume: Christian Gremmels, Eberhard Bethge, and Renate Bethge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Isabel Best, John W. de Gruchy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0800697030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780800697037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fortress Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 776\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 2.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronicle of Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/06\/2009 pg. 9\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/04\/2010 pg. 31\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/21\/2010 pg. 45\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristianity Today\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2013 pg. 68","brand":"Dietrich Bonhoeffer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43986680119551,"sku":"9780800697037","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ac752a4c-af06-4f3d-bc79-c68b601477b9.jpg?v=1683284707","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/letters-and-papers-from-prison-dietrich-bonhoeffer-9780800697037","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
