The point of controversy, in 1864, between Charles Kingsley and John Henry Newman is now only incidental to what it produced. Out of it came one of the most influential religious autobiographies of western liturature, the Apologia Pro Vita Sua. It is far more than a vigorous defense of religious adherence; it is an affirmation of faith and conviction, a projection of a magnetic and powerful personality and dynamic account of spiritual conversion. Anton C. Pegis, the renowned Thomist scholar and distinguished Catholic philosopher, provides an illuminating and perceptive introduction for Cardinal Newman's masterpiece. Contents Include - Mr. Kingsley's Method of Disputation - True Mode of Meeting Mr. Kingsley - History of my Religious Opinions up to 1833 - History of my Religious Opinions from 1833 to 1839 - History of Religious Opinions from 1839 to 1841 - History of my Religious Opinions from 1841 to 1845 - General Answer to Mr. Kingsley -Newman, Cardinal John Henry is the author of 'Apologia Pro Vita Sua', published 2007 under ISBN 9781406788327 and ISBN 1406788325.
