| Description |
This course will investigate the relationship between (auto) biography and theological reflection by looking at the living examples of several significant thinkers. The course begins by summarizing the foundations for such a presupposition as rooted in Lonergan's claim that "objectivity (truth) is the fruit of authentic subjectivity." Secondly, the course looks at some paradigmatic examples from Christian history such as St. Augustine. Third, a large portion of the course will emphasize the life and thought of Thomas Merton, but will also include other examples some of which he admired such as Simone Wei!, Catherine de Heuck Doherty, and Dorothy Day. |
