| Sumario: | This volume of essays, sponsored by the Newman Association of America, serves to identify, preserve, and promote the legacy of John Henry Newman. It argues that eleven major elements of Newmanâ (TM)s life and work speak to us today, and, in fact, are very important resources for believers in their confrontation with the challenges of an increasingly secular world. They also resonate loudly to a church in crisis both internally and externally in its confrontation with that world. Ten authors, included among them some of the worldâ (TM)s most noted Newman scholars, as well as several emerging ones, address various aspects of Newmanâ (TM)s legacy on a host of subjects. These include the nature and challenges of faith both for believers and contemporary â oenonesâ with no religious affiliations, an analysis of what and how we know things, particularly bearing on religious matters, the experience of conversions, the place and meaning of relationships in our search for God, especially those of family, home, and friendships, the indispensable role of the church in our drive for holiness, the nature and importance of education and its personal dimension, and the correct application of history in studying and learning from Newmanâ (TM)s legacy. Those who have questions and who think about these subjects, academics and non-academics alike, will find much to ponder in these essays. |
