Newman on Freedom and Authority
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 August 2009
Extract
It is indeed fitting that the centennial year of the death of Cardinal John Henry Newman (1801–1890) should be marked by new attention to the life and writings of this remarkable man of letters who dominated the intellectual and religious life of nineteenth-century England and whose significance as a thinker transcends his time and culture. A brilliant definitive biography by Ian T. Ker is the new polestar without which no future scholarship on Newman will be undertaken, while Ker's satellite works, thematic and focused, translate to the broadest possible readership a Newman never before so fully and realistically portrayed in personality, achievement and genius.
