Few people realize that Karl Barth, one of the twentieth centurys greatest Protestant theologians, was among a select group of nonCatholic guests who were invited to the Second Vatican Council (196265) to assist in the reform and renewal of the Roman Catholic Church. In Reforming Rome Donald Norwood offers the first booklength study of Barths involvement with Vatican II and his significant impact on the reform of the Catholic Church.Norwood examines Barths critical engagement with the Roman Catholic Church from his time at the (Catholic) University of Munster to his connection with Vatican II, his conversations with Pope Paul VI, and seminars and interviews he gave about the Council afterward. On the basis of extensive research, Norwood amplifies Barths own very brief account of Vatican II.Barth himself often felt that he was better understood by Roman Catholics such as Hans Kng, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Joseph Ratzinger than he was by his own Reformed colleagues. This study, written by a fellow Reformed theologian, helps us to see why.

This book has been essential for my research on Barth’s theology. The author does a fantastic job connecting historical context with theological implications. It’s an academic read, but well worth it for serious students of theology!

Fascinating but flawed
While I appreciate the depth of analysis in this book, I found the writing style a bit convoluted at times. It’s packed with good info, but I wished for more straightforward language. Still, I learned a lot about Vatican II that I didn’t know before.

Disappointing Experience
Unfortunately, my copy arrived with a dented cover. The content seems interesting, but I haven't had a chance to fully dive in yet. The shipping was slower than I expected, which added to my frustration. Hoping the book itself lives up to its reputation.

Interesting but a bit dense
I enjoyed the insights but found certain sections pretty heavy to get through. The author's depth in theological concepts is impressive, but it could be simplified a bit for casual readers. Still a worthwhile read for those interested in Barth and Vatican II.

Deep Insight into Vatican II
This book gives a thorough examination of Karl Barth's influence on Vatican II. I’m a theology student, and I found it incredibly enlightening. The perspectives on modern theology are rich and well-researched. Highly useful for anyone diving into ecumenical discussions.
