CHESTERTON’S CONCEPT OF HOLINESS IN DAILY LIFE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY MARTINE EMMA THOMPSON LONDON 2014 1 Abstract The term holiness and the concept of sainthood have come under much scrutiny in recent times, both among theologians and the modern laity. There is a sense that these terms or virtues belong to an age long past, and that they are remote and irrelevant to modern believers; that there is the ‘ideal’ but that it is not seriously attainable in a secular, busy modern world with all its demands. Moreover, many believe that sainthood is accessible only to the very few, attained by those who undergo strict ascetic regimes of self-denial and rejection of a ‘normal’ life. However, these conceptions of holiness are clearly at odds with, and may be challenged by others, including the Roman Catholic Church’s teaching of a ‘universal call to holiness’. One of the aims of this thesis is to address those misconceptions with particular focus upon the theological concepts of the writer G.K. Chesterton and his understanding of holiness in the ordinary. Having been a popular writer and journalist, it has proved difficult for some academics and laypeople to accept Chesterton as a theologian. Furthermore, Chesterton considered himself to be an ordinary man, he did not belong to a religious order or community, and yet he was a theological writer who formulated an original conception of holiness in the ordinary.

Chesterton and Parody Michael Ronald Shallcross Abstract This thesis constitutes the first study of G.K. Chesterton’s status as a theorist and practitioner of parody. Employing a combination of original archival research, historical contextualisation, theoretical analysis, and textual close reading, I demonstrate that an extensive range of parodic strategies permeate Chesterton’s diverse output, from his detective fiction, to his nonsense verse, journalism, novels, and critical essays. I particularly focus upon elaborating the affinity of Chesterton’s work with the literary and cultural theory of Mikhail Bakhtin, in relation to the latter’s principle of dialogism, and his account of the parodic basis of the carnivalesque.

  • Dialogical Style and Ethical Debate on Eugenics Don M. Shipley, Jr., BA
    ABSTRACT Chesterton and His Interlocutors: Dialogical Style and Ethical Debate on Eugenics Don M. Shipley, Jr., B.A., M.Div. Mentor: Ralph C. Wood, Ph.D. Before Nazi Germany’s eugenic practices had been completely exposed and denounced, G. K. Chesterton, a British writer best known for his fiction and Roman Catholic apologetics, published Eugenics and Other Evils in 1922. Therein he fiercely opposed eugenics and state sponsored eugenic practices; but his was not an isolated text offered in monologic argument to some vague social menace. In fact, Chesterton never wrote monologically but always in an intrinsically dialogical manner. As this dissertation attempts to demonstrate, this dialogical style, epitomized in the eugenics debate, energized Chesterton’s fiction, most notably his novel The Man Who Was Thursday and serves as a way of reading all of Chesterton, his fiction and non-fiction alike. This dissertation will attempt to demonstrate the historical and dialogical context of that conflict, explicate the exact arguments of both Inge and Chesterton, provide commentary on the dialogical style inherent in Chesterton’s literary works specifically The Man Who Was Thursday, The Ball and the Cross, and The Napoleon of Notting Hill, and Manalive and demonstrate both the prophetic nature and the literary excellence of Chesterton’s dialogical discourse. The importance of this dissertation is, at least, three-fold: first, to recover the historical context of Chesterton’s writings concerning eugenics, particularly his Eugenics and Other Evils, by returning him to conversation with his sparring partner on the subject, Dean Inge; secondly, to explicate Chesterton’s argument against eugenics by showing its relationship to Chesterton’s other writing, more particularly to those texts which are intrinsically dialogical.
