Professor Eamon Duffy is by any reckoning a scholar of the first
rank. He has revolutionised scholarship in his field. He is a man
of great intellectual courage and integrity. As he has shown in his
recent book "Faith of Our fathers", Duffy is also a man of deeply
held religious belief who struggles with the problems of being a
Christian in the modern world. Now in "Walking to Emmaus" we see
yet one more aspect to his intelligent, imagination and
personality. Professor Duffy is in regular demand as a preacher and
the giver of addresses on religious and spiritual matters. He has
assembled here the best of these, many given to undergraduates in a
University setting and has written a strong autobiographical
introduction explaining how his life as a scholar relates to his
childhood, upbringing and deeply held religious belief. Born into
Republican Ireland he now finds himself part of the British
academic establishment and this apparent incongruity has given him
special insight into the needs of young people and those who wish
to be both radical and traditional. The topics range from the
new-found interest in monasticism in out time to a new
understanding of St Valentine's day, taking full account of the
spiritual and fleshly needs of his audience. "Walking to Emmaus"
will delight Eamon Duffy's admirers and increase their numbers.
