Publisher Synopsis
This superb critical edition not only sets Newman's University Sermons in the context of his own life and thought, and of the cultural acids that he saw so clearly were eating away at Christian culture; the detailed annotation and careful indexing provide future scholars with the tools to set Newman in context and identify his varying interlocutors. Editors and publisher are indeed to be congratulated. Geoffrey Rowell The Journal of Theological Studies The power and stories these letters tell in enhanced by the high editorial standards we have come to expect from this series. It is to be hoped that such excellence will be displayed in other edited works, both by Newman and by the other members of the Tractarian circles.
