Summary/Abstract: The Barth–Brunner debate is one of the most significant moments of the Protestant theological history in the 20th century. The replica-exchange of the two outstanding figures of dialectical theology in 1934 not only includes the theological centres of gravity of Karl Barth and Emil Brunner, but also gives insight into the sparkling theological and spiritual atmosphere of the 1930s. Brunner’s interpretation reveals a specific version of natural theology, while Barth, in the spirit of New Reformation Theology, expresses his position in terms of the authority of the Word. In this essay we explore the content of some points of the debate, but we also briefly reconstruct the circumstances of its origin, as well as we mention its history and evaluation in Transylvania.
