Works by Moltmann in English

Acknowledgements

I am especially indebted to James L. Wakefield, Jürgen Moltmann: A Research Bibliography (Lanham, MD: Scarecrow, 2002). If I have done my job correctly, all of Moltmann’s works available in English that are listed in Wakefield have now been included on this page. I have added many later works not included in Wakefield, as well as some obscure ones that were not picked up by him. I have also, where possible, included extra information about subtitles of works, translators, the issue number of periodicals rather than just the volume number, editor first names rather than just initials, place of publication and publisher name, and pagination. Sometimes I have corrected misspellings. I have not included all of Wakefield’s notes, however, such as notes on various lectures that publications originated from, or notes on versions other than English or German. If you have access to Wakefield, his is still an important resource.

I would also like to acknowledge Arnold Neufeldt-Fast for his The Jürgen Moltmann Reading Room, accessible here. I have included many, though not all, of his links to free Moltmann content on the web on this page.

Please use the comments and corrections form below if you know of content not included here or would like to correct any of the entries.
