«On Being a Christian» is the theological essay by Hans Küng, published by Pocket Books in paperback (720 pages, in English).
Theologian Hans Küng examines what it means to be a Christian in the contemporary world and raises essential questions about the identity of faith, its place in today's society, and its relationship with other religions. The work proposes an integrative and dialogical vision of Christianity, open to reflection and interreligious encounter.
English translation by Edward Quinn; the original German title, «Christ Sein», was published in 1974.
A work for readers interested in theology, spirituality, and contemporary Christianity.
Hans Küng was a Swiss Catholic priest, theologian, and author. He was a leading and often controversial figure in modern Catholic thought, known for his critique of papal infallibility and his advocacy of a re-examination of Catholic doctrine. He served as a theological adviser (''peritus'') at the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965) and was Professor of Ecumenical Theology at the University of Tübingen from 1960 until his retirement in 1996.
