Examining the structure, origins, and development of the metaphysics of one of the most important modern theologians, Stephen M. Fields, S.J., explains how Karl Rahner's metaphysics is a creative synthesis of Thomism and the modern philosophical tradition. Focusing on Rahner's core concept of the Realsymbol, which posits all beings as symbolic, Fields establishes the place of the Realsymbol in philosophical theories of the symbol. He particularly concentrates on those key aspects of Rahner's metaphysics -- his theories of finite realities and language -- that have received insufficient attention. By analyzing a wide range of Rahner's works in the context of twelve medieval, modern, and contemporary thinkers from Aquinas through Heidegger, Fields reveals to an extent never before attempted the origins of this seminal thinker's metaphysics and his contributions to modern theories of the symbol.
