Abstract
Karl Rahner spoke often of the interrelationship between dogmatic theology and the transcendental method he famously espoused. This method was proposed both as a means to explicate theology and as an apologetic bridge. Rahner's use of the transcendental method, however, did not hinder an interest in traditional treatment of theological themes. In an article entitled "On the Theology of Hope," he turns his attention to hope as understood from the scholastic tradition's treatment of 1 Corinthians 13: 13 and explicates the character of such a hope in terms of practical engagement. In this paper, I will consider the character of hope by revisiting the theological treatment of hope in Rahner's article in light of his transcendental method and by engaging the theme of hope as present in Paul's epistle to the Romans.
