Dear members of the paul- list

I am working on a thesis about the Romer brief of 1922 by Karl Barth, especially on Roman 5, 12 etc and 6. old and new adam, baptism and death, dying in Christ and death for the sin, living for God in Jesus Christ, and the meaning of grace versus living in sin . Could you help me with suggestions for literature about these chapters from different perspectives: new perspective, and also the reception in history of which Karl Barth is a point of culmination. I think this part of the romerbrief of Barth is central for his later development in the KD, and expresses an existential experience of the Young Barth, how to overcome the depressive feeling of irrelevance of the christian belief in his own life and time. God in Jesus Christ is the new life, and God as the total Other cares for those who are willing to die in Jesus. It is a surrender to God, and reliefs from desolation.
So if you could help me with suggestions about relevant literature,
exegetical, wirkungsgeschichte and maybe also about the special view of Karl
Barth on it, I would be grateful.
