Rescuing Lonergan: A Series of Vignettes
This series of essays aims at drawing effective attention to destructive misreadings of particular passages in Lonergan’s work, but with a central focus on the dodging by all of us of the paragraph in Insight that turns the page 609. The context of the enterprise is section 5 of Chapter 10 of Method in Theology, “Dialectic: The Structure.”
(Please note that in some of the essays there are hyperlinks to essays hosted on an earlier version of this website. All of those essays are now available on this website and can be easily found using the search bar.)
