Abstract

In All That He Did He Prospered. Jan Milíč Lochman – a Guided Tour of the Work of the International Czech Theologian. The key lecture presented at the symposium on the 100th birthday of the Reformed theologian Jan Milíč Lochman. Lochman taught systematic theology 1950–1968 in Prague, 1969–1992 in Basel. He is the author of many hundreds of professional studies and popular articles and about twenty Czech, Geman and English books in the fields of Historical Theology (ortho-practice of the Czech Reformation), Theological Ethics (Christian-Marxist dialogue) and Systematic Theology (dogmatic soteriology seeking a balance between theological verticalism and horizontalism). Lochman was a world-renowned popularizer of Czech thought and a master of dialogue between theologians, between churches, between theology and philosophy, religion and culture, faith and science. In his life, as in his academic and ecumenical work, he opposed all kinds of fatalism. As a formally dialectical and contextual theologian, he has always been – like his great compatriot Comenius – a theologian of hope.
