Controversies over the real meaning of the title and the author's remark that Christ is unknown to Hindus and \u003ci\u003ea fortiori\u003c\/i\u003e to Christians have been waged among generations of scholars. Refusing to isolate Panikkar's concerns with the Hindu-Christian dialogue from much larger theological and biblical debates occurring in the period before and during the Vatican Council II, this book suggests that the unknown Christ of Christianity is the plastic representation of an insufficient degree of universality of the Church. Rejecting traditional interpretations that identify a gulf between the first and the second edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Unknown\u003c\/i\u003e, this book argues for a continuity in Raimon Panikkar's thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e«I heartily commend Beltramini for a job well done.
