Description
Summary:In this collection of essays, scholars from across the disciplines of theology, philosophy, education, and history examine the different ways in which Newman has been interpreted. Some of the essays attempt to rescue Newman from his opponents then and now. Others seek to save him from his rescuers, clearing away misinterpretations so that Newman's works may be encountered afresh. All the essays show why Newman's ideas about religion were so important in the past and continue to inform the present.
