Описание: Living out the social message of the Catholic Christian faith is not only an academic question. But if someone asked you for one book that clearly elucidated that message, what could you give them? Just as the Catechism of the Catholic Church (1992) has become a standard reference for informed Catholics about the Church’s general doctrine, popes since John Paul II have expressed a desire for a “social Catechism” that succinctly presents the implications of the faith for social and political life and its connection to the new evangelization. This work aims to fill that void. Handbook of Catholic Social Teaching employs a question and answer format, to better accentuate the response of the Church’s message to the questions Catholics have about their social role and what the Church intends to teach about it. It is the first short book on Catholic Social Teaching to ground itself thoroughly in the longer and authoritative Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church (2004), following the compendium’s structure but rendering its key points more succinctly and accessibly. It also brings in more recent papal encyclicals like Caritas in Veritate and Laudato Si and new special topics (such as gender ideology). Written in consultation with the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, and already a best-seller in Italy, the Handbook should take its place alongside the Catechism on the shelf of informed Catholics as works that can inform what we believe and do in the public sphere.

Описание: John Henry Newman (1801–1890), renowned thinker and writer, Anglican clergyman and later Roman Catholic priest and cardinal, has had a lasting influence on both Anglicans and Catholics, in the fields of literature, education, and theology. On October 13, 2019, Pope Francis declared him a saint in Rome.
A Guide to John Henry Newman offers a wide range of subjects on Newman's life and thought relevant for our times and complementary to biographies of Newman. The contributors include authors from many different disciplines including theology, education, literature, history, and philosophy, highlighting the wide range of Newman's work. These authors offer a positive assessment of Newman's work and contribute to the discussion of the recent scholarship of others.
The volume is divided into two parts, the first part concentrates on the person of Newman, and the second part on some of his salient contributions in various fields. The scholars contributing to this volume will also offer the readers a better picture of Newman and his contribution to society and Christianity, in a more accurate and positive light than some recent scholarship.
A Guide to John Henry Newman will interest educated readers and college professors alike, as well as have the potential to serve as a text for college seminars for the purpose of studying Newman.

Описание: Prayer was regarded as an essential arm of the State and even a method of 'thought control' in early modern England. In the seventeenth Century, the period covered by Richard Ginn's study, Common Prayer dominated people's everyday lives at a national level, in communities and congregations, as well as privately in households. Ginn demonstrates how prayer represented the search for pattern, order and purpose in and between these different layers of society in a period when England was struggling to come to terms with political and social turbulence, rocked by the violence of the Civil War, unease over the Commonwealth and the uncertainties of the Restoration. Ginn argues that the importance of Prayer as a stabilizing force during these times of instability cannot be underestimated; it fostered a sense of national identity, an integrating principle at a vulnerable time for England, putting the social order in a greater context under a sovereign God.
