Dorothee Soelle

Renate Wind has composed a well-researched and searching biography of Dorothee Soelle (1929-2003), who became one of the most prolific and widely read theologians of the postwar period and a true religious provocateur. Wind's short and insightful biography is informed by extensive interviews with Soelle's friends and family, especially her husband, Fulbert Steffensky, by use of the family's archives, and by Wind's extensive knowledge of contemporary theology, political history, and the contemporary church.Read less
