Cardinal Newman stated "I am not a theologian" many times in his
letters. In the strict "academic" or "scholarly" sense, indeed he
was not. Yet in another broader sense, he certainly was one. In any
event, he wrote exquisitely on theology. His personal letters were
"popular" and non-technical. In effect, here he becomes a catechist
and apologist. Scholars write to and for other scholars, whereas
Catholic catechists, apologists, and evangelists try to reach the
masses (and Catholics) with the good news of the glorious fullness
of the Catholic Christian faith. Moreover, in Cardinal Newman's
writing we find extraordinary prose: a feast of 19th century
eloquent English style; and we encounter a saintly man. My goal is
to create almost a "systematic theology" from Cardinal Newman, by
use of many topical categories. This volume may be of particular
usefulness for possible converts, as well as Catholics seeking to
revive an uncertain or tentative personal Catholic faith. There is
much precious treasure here.
