The tenth and final volume of the series "Studium Systematische Theologie" (Studying Systematic Theology) presents historical and systematic information about eschatology. It starts with a critical analysis of approaches that are specific for one denomination or for modernity and subsequently develops a concept of Christian fantasy of faith, which is the hermeneutical key to eschatology. The book covers the topics of the individual's death and the problem of the immortality of his soul, of the universal resurrection of the dead and the problem of their corporeity, of justice and Last Judgment, and the question of how to think about Heaven and hell and purgatory.
The volume ends with epilegomena about imminent and deferred expectation, and an afterword to the whole series about theological contemporaneity.
