Virtually all of Lonergan's writings point to the nature and implications of this foundational event. Lonergan indi- cated that he himself experienced this radical event while studying in Rome in the mid-1930's. What is intellectual conversion? This book will try to answer this question by focussing on this event in Loner- gan's early life. It traces the early influences on his work and the stages of his developing thought up to 1935-1936. It highlights what we know of this major event in his thinking at that time. In addition, it sets out the developing expres- sion of his intellectual conversion in his writings during the late 1930's and the 1940's. It brings Lonergan's early story up to the clearest expression of the meaning of intellectual conversion in his major work, Insight: An Essay on Hu- man Understanding, written between 1949 and 1953. Grateful acknowledgement is made to the following who have allowed me to reprint selected passages from Bernard Lonergan's writings: The trustees of the Lonergan Research Institute, Toronto, Canada, for permis- sion to quote from Lonergan's unpublished writings. The University of Toronto Press for permission to quote fromThe Collected Works of Bernard Lonergan: Insight(Volume 3); Collection (Volume 4); and Understanding and Being (Volume 5); and also Method in Theology.

I would also like to express my gratitude to the many benefactors who have helped me and encouraged me in this work. In the first place, I want to thank all my friends and family who have trusted that in some way these several years of study and research in a seemingly esoteric project were worthwhile.

If God in fact exists, then only real assent to the proposition asserting his existence is adequate. Notional assent is inadequate because it is assent to a notion or abstraction, and not to a present reality. But on Newman's view it is notional assent which normally follows on a formal inference, therefore the significance of traditional formal arguments is thrown into question. Newman has claimed that our attitude toward a proposition may be one of three; we may doubt it, infer it, or assent to it, and to assent to it is to hold it unconditionally.

  • Saint John Henry Newman, Development of Doctrine, and Sensus Fidelium: His Enduring Legacy in Roman Catholic Theological Discourse
    Journal of Moral Theology, Vol. 10, No. 2 (2021): 60–89 Saint John Henry Newman, Development of Doctrine, and Sensus Fidelium: His Enduring Legacy in Roman Catholic Theological Discourse Kenneth Parker The whole Church, laity and hierarchy together, bears responsi- bility for and mediates in history the revelation which is contained in the holy Scriptures and in the living apostolic Tradition … [A]ll believers [play a vital role] in the articulation and development of the faith …. “Sensus fidei in the life of the Church,” 3.1, 67 International Theological Commission of the Catholic Church Rome, July 2014 N 2014, THE INTERNATIONAL THEOLOGICAL Commission pub- lished “Sensus fidei in the life of the Church,” which highlighted two critically important theological concepts: development and I sensus fidelium. Drawing inspiration directly from the works of John Henry Newman, this document not only affirmed the insights found in his Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine (1845), which church authorities embraced during the first decade of New- man’s life as a Catholic, but also his provocative Rambler article, “On Consulting the Faithful in Matters of Doctrine” (1859), which resulted in episcopal accusations of heresy and Newman’s delation to Rome. The tension between Newman’s theory of development and his appeal for the hierarchy to consider the experience of the “faithful” ultimately centers on the “seat” of authority, and whose voices matter. As a his- torical theologian, I recognize in the 175 year reception of Newman’s theory of development, the controversial character of this historio- graphical assumption—or “metanarrative”—which privileges the hi- erarchy’s authority to teach, but paradoxically acknowledges the ca- pacity of the “faithful” to receive—and at times reject—propositions presented to them as authoritative truth claims.1 1 Maurice Blondel, in his History and Dogma (1904), emphasized that historians always act on metaphysical assumptions when applying facts to the historical St.

  • Saint Anselm, Blessed John Henry Newman, and the Idea of a Benedictine University
    Saint Anselm, Blessed John Henry Newman, and the Idea of a Benedictine University Fr. Daniel Patrick Moloney, Ph.D. John Henry Newman's "Benedictine Essays" develop a strong thesis that Benedictine spirituality is necessarily at odds with the methods of the modern university. Benedictine spiritual life encourages the monk to mortify his intellect, not to satisfy it or to stir it up. It is best suited to grammar school, to the study of literature and history and Scripture, while rejecting the value of studying worldly topics that don't prepare a person for union with God in the next life. Newman's account makes the project of a Benedictine university like St. Anselm's College seem deeply problematic, even oxymoronic. St. Anselm of Canterbury, a transitional figure on Newman's account, shows some ways of reconciling a speculative intellectual life with Benedictine spirituality, but Newman's challenge to the project still remains. It’s a great honor to be here. When I was invited to give this lecture, that is to give the Saint Anselm Lecture at Saint Anselm College on the Feast of Saint Anselm, I thought I noticed a theme. I’m an expert on Saint Anselm, having written my dissertation on your patron saint and having been studying him since I was a senior in college more than twenty years ago. So I figured that the topic of my talk was going to be Saint Anselm. But then I read the fine print of the invitation, and realized that because this year is the anniversary of the College, that I was being asked to talk not just about Saint Anselm and his continued significance, but about something I didn’t know anything about, namely “distinctively Benedictine Catholic higher education.” I’m sure that’s a topic of some reflection here, at a Benedictine College, but it’s not something I’ve ever thought about.

  • 1 Why Newman Is Not Enough: Reflections on the Gospel And
    1 Why Newman Is Not Enough: Reflections on the Gospel and Development The Rev. Dr. William H. Harrison Introduction Since the publication of John Henry Newman’s classic, An Essay on the Development of Doctrine, in the 19th century, the idea that doctrine develops has become a commonplace of Christian theology (though some theologians still deny that it happens). We tend, however, to have an easier time agreeing that it occurs than being clear about what it is. Clarity about the nature of doctrinal development hinges upon the distinction between restatement, revolution, and reappropriation. The question of same- sex marriage is a question of reappropriation, on the heels of some notable revolutions. To distinguish a “true” development from a “false” (in Newman’s language1) we need helpful criteria; in other words, we must answer the question: “Which developments sustain the heart of the Christian message while incorporating new insights of the Christian church, exercising its intelligence and judgement in relation to its heritage and contemporary situation?” The central criteria are found in the liturgical origin and soteriological relationships of particular developments. Same-sex marriages are a valid reappropriation of Christian practice, rooted in liturgical practice and a genetic development of Christian doctrine. They are not a matter of core doctrine, since they are not constitutive of our theology of salvation; they are, however, a reasonable development of Christian understanding of marriage, sustaining its relationship to soteriology. Same-sex marriages can participate in the life of creativity to 1 John Henry Newman, An Essay on the Development of Doctrine, (Harmondsworth: Penguin/Pelican, 1974), passim.

  • Newman and Last Things, Juan Vélez, “The Downside Review”, CXVIIII, No
    Newman and Last Things, Juan Vélez, “The Downside Review”, CXVIIII, no. 414, (2001), 51-68. Newman and Last Things The encyclical letter Faith and Reason renders John H. Newman and other 19th and 20th century theologians a just recognition for their analysis of the interdependence of faith and reason 1. Newman’s University Sermons were his initial exposition on the subject. The essay On the scope of University Education is a continuation of his study which he completed in The Grammar of Assent. In these works, the Oxford don and later Catholic priest explained the intrinsic relationship between faith and reason. He pointed out the limits of reason, emphasized the reasonableness of faith, and described the complex human assent to revealed truths. Through a renewed understanding of moral consciousness he established the epistemological foundations for a new consideration of faith2. In this article we present an overview of Newman's teaching on eschatology that so far has been the object of few monographic studies3. His approach to revelation and dogma in eschatology could rightly be summarized by St. Anselm’s classical expression fides quarens intellectum. For him, dogmas are windows that peer into the mysteries of faith; they always allow for deeper understanding. Newman defended the dogmas on life after death confessed by the creeds, but sought a richer understanding of these truths, especially that of purification after death. In his Parochial and Plain Sermons and in The Dream of Gerontius he addressed these truths, albeit from a pastoral perspective, and 1 Encyclical Letter Fides et Ratio, Editrice Vaticana, Vatican, 1998, n.

Portier, Ph.D. Faculty Advisor ______________________________ Sandra A. Yocum, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Dennis M. Doyle, Ph.D. Committee Member ii ABSTRACT “READING CUSTOM AS ILLATIVE SENSE” A THEOLOGICAL ACCOUNT OF JOHN HENRY NEWMAN’S APPROPRIATION OF A REALIST INTERPRETATION OF DAVID HUME Name: Martin, Sean Swain University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. William Portier This thesis explores the notion that John Henry Newman offered an epistemological system that in some way mirrors the image of the non-skeptical, realist reading of Hume that we have only seen become popular over the last few decades and that understanding this commonality to Newman’s system is extremely helpful in making sense of the complicated notion he names the illative sense and the function it is to play in the practice of the Christian faith. I first formulate the historically accepted skeptical epistemology associated with Hume, with specific attention given to his discussion of the problems surrounding the idea of causation. I contrast this traditionally rendered Hume with the model provided by his contemporary, Thomas Reid, which includes explicit interaction with this understanding of Hume’s philosophy.
