Pensées Catholiques v.1: Essais (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781778835988)

In literary criticism, the consideration of the religious motivations of the writer is often neglected. Four classics are considered in terms of the religious ideas their authors wished to present: Shakespeare, Milton, Melville, T.S. Eliot. Several Catholic/Christian theological problems are addressed, for example did God always intend to become man, or not? Is there a model for the Eucharist in the natural world? Can the image of the Trinity be seen in the basis of the physical world? Short essays describe four pillars of Catholicism: the Mass; the Bible; the Rosary; Marian apparitions. Finally there are pithy sayings from Father Benedict Groeschel.
