The Genius of John Henry Newman: Selections from his Writings - Ker, Ian; Newman, John Henry

Clean, tight, unmarked; slightest of wear to corners and inside edge; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Ian Ker presents a major collection of Newman's writings, celebrating his full achievements as both a universally significant religious thinker and a major Victorian writer. An unsystematic thinker, Newman's ideas are scattered throughout his works - most of which were 'occasional' in their origin. This anthology provides a rich and varied sampling from his voluminous works, drawing our attention to some of the very finest passages in Newman's writings whether selected from his well-known publications or from occasional texts that are difficult to find in print. The selections are divided into five sections which focus on his life as an educator, and philosopher, a preacher, a theologian, and a writer.
