By Schubert Ogden
The Notebooks of Schubert Ogden
It seems clear that explicating a world view (= Weltanschauung), properly so-called, is a matter, not of direct address, but of indirect address. But, then, isn't Christian teaching, as distinct from Christian proclamation, a matter of explicating a world view, i.e., the Christian world view? And isn't this what Bultmann has in mind when he says that the Christian proclamation can be understood as a phenomenon of intellectual history, and, with respect to its content of ideas, is "a possible world view"?
