Book Synopsis We Hold These Truths by : John Courtney Murray
Download or read book We Hold These Truths written by John Courtney Murray and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2005 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1960 publication of We Hold These Truths marked a significant event in the history of modern American thought. Since that time, Sheed & Ward has kept the book in print and has published several studies of John Courtney Murray's life and work. We are proud to present a new edition of this classic text, which features a comprehensive introduction by Peter Lawler that places Murray in the context of Catholic and American history and thought while revealing his relevance today. From the new Introduction by Peter Lawler: The Jesuit John Courtney Murray (1904-67) was, in his time, probably the best known and most widely respected American Catholic writer on the relationship between Catholic philosophy and theology and his country's political life. The highpoint of his influence was the publication of We Hold These Truths in the same year as an election of our country's first Catholic president. Those two events were celebrated by a Time cover story (December 12, 1960) on Murray's work and influence. The story's author, Protestant Douglas Auchincloss, reported that it was "The most relentlessly intellectual cover story I've done." His amazingly wide ranging and dense--if not altogether accurate--account of Murray's thought was crowned with a smart and pointed conclusion: "If anyone can help U.S. Catholics and their non-Catholic countrymen toward the disagreement that precedes understanding--John Courtney Murray can." . . . Murray's work, of course, is treated with great respect and has had considerable influence, but now it's time to begin to think of him as one of America's very few genuine political philosophers. His disarmingly lucid and accessible prose has caused his book to be widely cited and celebrated, but it still is not well understood. It is both praised and blamed for reconciling Catholic faith with the fundamental premises of American political life. It is praised by liberals for paving the way for Vatican II's embrace of the American idea of religious liberty, and it is
Book Synopsis Problems in American Society by : Joseph Henry Crooker
Download or read book Problems in American Society written by Joseph Henry Crooker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in American Society: Some Social Studies Let the light Shine into every nook and comer, and let every piece be tested; for, if there is anything out of order, it is high time that it be mended, and, if there is anything which has become obsolete, it is high time that it be cast aside for something better. Criticism will lead in creativeness, and after wild vagaries will come the saner mood. Vast improvements in the form and content of human life will result from this free and intense application of thought to all these questions of poverty, crime, education, economics, and religious co-operation. It is only by such discussion that we can hope to reach modes of life, individual and corporate, on a level with our intelligence. And one of the most hopeful indications of the hour is this growing interest in all matters which pertain to the problem of living. The social impulse which seeks to put a truth to divine uses is as necessary as the scientific spirit which seeks to discover that truth.

Book Synopsis The History of the Society of Friends in America, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) by : James Bowden
Download or read book The History of the Society of Friends in America, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) written by James Bowden and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Society of Friends in America, Vol. 1 It is true, that no inconsiderable portions of the valuable histories both of Sewel and Gough, have reference to the proceedings of Friends in America. The details, however, which these furnish are confined principally to the sufferings of some of their early members or ministers in New England, and to transactions of the Society within the limits of Penn sylvania and the Jerseys. The present work embraces a much wider field, and aims to exhibit a distinct history of each individual Yearly Meeting of Friends in America from its rise down to a period comparatively recent. The new and unpublished materials relating to the Society of Friends in the western world, which, under many favour able circumstances the writer has been enabled to collect from various sources on both sides of the Atlantic, together with an easy access to numerous printed works of ancient date and of great scarcity, have placed within his reach the means of effecting the object to a much larger extent than he could have anticipated. And here he desires to acknow ledge the kind 'and valuable assistance which he has derived both from meetings and individuals, in the readiness with which they have allowed him access to mss., including some thousands of letters of early Friends; with other important historical documents of more recent date. In studying the history of the Society of Friends, it has appeared to the author important, rightly to understand the religious character and condition of the population amongst which our early Friends arose. With this View the chapter on the discovery and colonization of North America has been introduced, and though somewhat extended, it is hoped that its details will not be considered inappropriate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and the Social Crisis Western civilization is passing through a social revolution unparalleled in history for scope and power. Its coming was inevitable. The religious, political, and intellectual revolutions of the past five centuries, which together created the modern world, necessarily had to culminate in an economic and social revolution such as is now upon us. By universal consent, this social crisis is the overshadowing problem of our generation. The industrial and commercial life of the advanced nations are in the throes of it. In politics all issues and methods are undergoing upheaval and re-alignment as the social movement advances. In the world of thought all the young and serious minds are absorbed in the solution of the social problems. Even literature and art point like compass-needles to this magnetic pole of all our thought. The social revolution has been slow in reaching our country. We have been exempt, not because we had solved the problems, but because we had not yet confronted them. We have now arrived, and all the characteristic conditions of American Hfe will henceforth combine to make the social struggle here more intense than anywhere else.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Institutions of the United States Several gentlemen interested in the Chautauqua gathering, and in the literary enterprises associated with it, have ex pressed a wish that the concluding chapters of my book on the American Commonwealth Should be separately reprinted in a cheap form, so as to bring them within the reach of Chautauquan students and others who may not have leisure or opportunity to read the whole treatise. In acceding to their request, I have also promised to write a few sentences by way of introduction, explaining the relation Of the above mentioned chapters to the rest of my book, and the aim with which they were composed. He who undertakes to describe the political system of a nation or state has a comparatively definite task before him, because it is pretty well understood what the term politics means and includes. The field is doubtless a wide one, but with sufficient time and pains it may be covered. To deal with those institutions of a country, those aspects Of national life and character, which lie outside politics, is far more difficult, because the field is SO wide that no one man or book can hope to exhaust it. All industrial movements, all social move ments, all religious movements, much of what is included under the terms Literature, Manners, Education, Science, Art, come within this field; and the business of selecting for treatment those which can be treated concisely and in obvious relation to one another is a problem which may well perplex a writer. It was, however, a problem I had to face. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social and Economic Forces in American History: From the American Nation, a History In his general introduction to that history the editor, Prof. A. _b. Hart, writes that it must include the social life of the people, their religion, their literature, and their schools. It must include their economic life, occupations, labor systems, and organizations of capital. While this book has been prepared with emphasis upon social history, yet social and economic phases are inevitably inter woven, and both are presented with some references to other conditions where this had seemed necessary. The purpose has been to indicate essentials, and therefore these successive views of social and eco nomic phases afford a practically consecutive and.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from South America Today: Social and Religious Movements as Observed on a Trip to the Southern Continent in 1921 In calling attention to their developments, my purpose is not by any means to treat them exhaustively. I desire simply to bring to my readers a few facts and experiences of my trip to South America from March to July of 1921, with the hope that they will impress all interested, as they have me, with the rapidly changing conditions in South America. Most of my readers will be those particularly interested in the religious progress of the Southern continent. Believing, as I do, that these social problems are intimately bound up with the religious situation, it has seemed to me that it would be more helpful at this time to direct attention to the general situation, than to give a survey of Christian Work such as has been published following other visits.

Download or read book The Civilization of the South American Indians written by Rafael Karsten and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-29 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civilization of the South American Indians: With Special Reference to Magic and Religion So far as the lower forms of civilization are concerned, there are, Iext to sociological field-work, no other investigations so urgently Ieeded as monographs on definite classes of social phenomena among t certain group of related tribes. Social facts are largely influenced Jy local conditions, by the physical environment, by the circum tances in which the people in question live, by their habits and Dental characteristics; and all these factors can, of course, much nore easily be taken into account when the investigation is confined o a single people, or one ethnic unit, than when it embraces a class )f phenomena as existing throughout the whole uncivilized world. Dr. Karsten's book combines the merits of the field-ethnologist with zhose of the monographer on a larger scale. His equipment for his ask is exceptional. He is a trained sociologist, and an acute and houghtful observer. He went to South America for the express ourpose of studying its native tribes. He has spent five years in zlose contact with savages in different parts of the continent, and earned their language. And he has carefully searched all the available iterature relating to the customs and beliefs of Indians in the various parts of the vast area with which he is dealing, and has thus been able to present, and comment upon, a large mass of facts falling mtside the field for his own direct inquiries and personal observa ion.
