요약 : On close examination of Hans Urs von Balthasar's early works, which have gone largely unnoticed, one finds a preoccupation with understanding and interpreting the God-human relationship in modernity. At the heart of this preoccupation lie Balthasar's reflections on what Martin Heidegger referred to as the existential fact of man's openness to Being. For Balthasar, this Heideggerian insight is to be understood in terms of an encounter between finite human freedom and infinite divine freedom. One can argue that Balthasar's focus on "the encounter" is the internal logic guiding his literary output prior to the writing of his famous trilogy and that this internal logic determines Balthasar's understanding of the relationship between form (Gestalt ) and freedom (Freiheit)---arguably the two central themes of his mature thought. This dissertation examines Balthasar's understanding of the encounter, while attempting to document how the encounter is the interpretive key to his entire literary oeuvre. Such an examination will not only make possible a coherent reading of his overall thought but also present that thought in terms of a singular and ubiquitous theme. The first part of the dissertation will address the emergence of the encounter as the central preoccupation of Balthasar's thought. First, an analysis will be given of his engagement with modern German thinkers in his early work Apokalypse tier deutschen Seele, in which he identifies the turn to the subject of modern German thought as a tragic misreading of the encounter with the infinite. Second, an examination of Balthasar's subsequent theological response to the phenomenon of a dominant subjectivity will be considered in light of Balthasar's retrieval of patristic anthropology and Christology. The major patristic figures to be assayed will be Origen, Gregory of Nyssa, and Maximus the Confessor. The second part will document the development of a synthesis in Balthasar's early theological insights on the encounter by presenting the philosophical and psychological dimensions of the encounter that he provides in his Wahrheit der Welt and Die Christ und die Angst. The third part will explore the relationship between the two central themes of Balthasar's trilogy---Gestalt and freedom---and demonstrate how Balthasar's earlier work on the encounter is the key to understanding this relationship as it is worked out in Herrlichkeit and Theodramatik. Final remarks will address recent criticisms of Balthasar's thought, a proposal of the originality of Balthasar's reading of the encounter, and a critique of the only other reading available in English of the logic of Balthasar's thought.
