This full-length life of John Henry Newman is the first
comprehensive biography of both the man and the thinker and writer.
It draws extensively on material from Newman's letters and papers.
Newman's character is revealed in its complexity and contrasts: the
legendary sadness and sensitivity are placed in their proper
perspective by being set against his no less striking qualities of
exuberance, humour, and toughness. This book attempts to do justice
to the fullness of Newman's achievement and genius: the Victorian
'prophet' or 'sage', who ranks among the major English prose
writers; the dominating religious figure of the nineteenth century,
who can now be recognised as the forerunner of the Second Vatican
Council and the modern ecumenical movement; and finally, the
universal Christian thinker, whose significance transcends his
culture and time.
