Leo XIII and the Modern Neo-Scholastic Revival (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235865013)

This book demonstrates that the Neo-Scholastic revival inaugurated by Leo XIII was one of the most ambitious intellectual rescue operations in modern history. By refusing to surrender the modern mind to secularism or to abandon reason in the name of piety, Leo XIII forged a path that insisted upon the absolute harmony of faith and reason, science and metaphysics, nature and grace. As contemporary philosophy continues to grapple with the fragmented, hyper-subjective legacies of postmodernism, the Leonine mandate remains a haunting and potent reminder that the pursuit of universal truth requires a foundation as expansive, rigorous, and deep as reality itself.
