Medievalism: A Reply to Cardinal Mercier

Republished here for the first time in nearly a century, coincidentally in the wake of another encyclical, not to mention a new "universal catechism," both tending to promote a centralized and hierarchical - "medieval" in Tyrrell's phraseology - view of the Church, it is bound to strike the reader in an astonishingly prophetic book. "To read it is to realize that, whatever else it may be, it is neither minor nor ephemeral. The issues it treats are still large and live in the Church."Tyrrell, George is the author of 'Medievalism: A Reply to Cardinal Mercier', published 2006 under ISBN 9781597529785 and ISBN 1597529788.
