Against the Titans - Theology and the Martyrdom of Alfred Delp

Against the Titans examines Alfred Delp's rejection of the perversion of heroism and sacrifice. Peter Nguyen, S.J., argues that Delp embodied a Christian theology of martyrdom that offered an alternative to Ernst Jünger's belief that violent heroism, merged with technology, could resolve the discontentment with modernity.
