An Essay in Aid of A Grammar of Assent

book
posted on 2017-07-19, 00:00 authored by John Henry Cardinal Newman
This classic of Christian apologetics seeks to persuade the skeptic that there are good reasons to believe in God even though it is impossible to understand the deity fully. First written over a century ago, the _Grammar of Assent_ speaks as powerfully to us today as it did to its first readers. Because of the informal, non-technical character of Newman's work, it still retains its immediacy as an invaluable guide to the nature of religious belief. A new introduction by Nicholas Lash reviews the background of the _Grammar_, highlights its principal themes, and evaluates its philosophical originality.\u000a\u000a\u00A9 University of Notre Dame\u000a\u000aCopyright for most content is held by The University of Notre Dame.
