Full Description
The Catholic Studies Reader is a rare book in an emerging field that has neither a documented history nor a consensus as to what should be a normative methodology. Dividing this volume into five interrelated themes central to the practice and theory of Catholic Studies—"Sources and Contexts," "Traditions and Methods," "Pedagogy and Practice," "Ethnicity, Race, and Catholic Studies," and "The Catholic Imagination"—the editors provide readers with the opportunity to understand the great diversity within this area of study.
Readers will find informative essays on the Catholic intellectual tradition and Catholic social teaching, as well as reflections on the arts and literature. This provocative and enriching collection is valuable not only for scholars but also for lay and religious Catholics working in Catholic education in universities, high schools, and
parish schools.
