Abstract
This essay highlights Balthasar's kenoticism as the key notion that allows him to relate intimately but also to distinguish clearly between (metaphysical) philosophy and (Trinitarian) theology. Through a careful study of Balthasar's metaphysics and kenoticism, this essay shows that Balthasar's Trilogy develops, in light of its kenotic reading of the immanent Trinity, a kenotically expressed metaphysics. The result is a reciprocal elucidation between theology and philosophy and a genuinely Trinitarian ontology, that is, a deeply Trinitarian account of the metaphysical constitution of finite being that still distinguishes between the philosophical and the theological disciplines.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Systematic Theology has acquired a world-wide reputation for publishing high-quality academic articles on systematic theology and for substantial reviews of major new works of scholarship. Systematic theology, which is concerned with the systematic articulation of the meaning, coherence and implications of Christian doctrine, is at the leading edge of contemporary academic theology. The discipline has undergone a remarkable transformation in the last three decades, and is now firmly established as a central area of academic teaching and research.
