- Summary:
- This collection of essays, addresses, and one interview come from the years 1966-73, a period during most of which Bernard Lonergan was at work completing his Method in Theology. The eighteen chapters cover a wide spectrum of interest, dealing with general topics such as 'The Absence of God in Modern Culture' and 'The Future of Christianity,' narrowing down to items such as 'Belief: Today's Issue' and through more specialized theological and philosophical studies, to one on his own community in the church and illuminating commentary on his great work Insight ('Insight Revisited'). In the introduction, the editors emphasize that Lonergan's central concern is intentionality analysis, and that two major themes run through the papers: "first, the clear emergence of the primacy of the fourth level of human consciousness, the existential level, the level of evaluation and love; secondly, the significance of historical consciousness. These papers, then, besides the unity they possess by appearing within the same seven year period, share a specific unity of theme."
