TRS 775 The Theology of John Henry Newman

This course is an introduction to John Henry Newman's theology as it unfolded along his journey from Anglicanism to Catholicism. Major works from his Anglican as well as his Catholic period will be covered. While Newman's biography will matter, the focus of the course will be on theological themes: the Church of the Fathers and the Via Media, faith and reason, faith and unbelief, conscience, justification, sanctification, ecclesiology, Mariology, the development of doctrine, and eschatology.
