A timely new work by one of France's premier philosophers, A Brief
Apology for a Catholic Moment offers insight into what "catholic"
truly means. In this short, accessible book, Jean-Luc Marion braids
the sense of catholic as all-embracing and universal into
conversation about what it is to be Catholic in the present moment.
A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment tackles complex issues
surrounding church-state separation and addresses a larger Catholic
audience that transcends national boundaries, social identities,
and linguistic differences. Marion insists that Catholic
universalism, with its core of communion and community, is not an
outmoded worldview, but rather an outlook that has the potential to
counter the positivist rationality and nihilism at the core of our
current political moment, and can help us address questions
surrounding liberalism and religion and what is often presented as
tension between "Islam and the West." As an inviting and
sophisticated Catholic take on current political and social
realities-realities that are not confined to France alone-A Brief
Apology for a Catholic Moment is a valuable contribution to a
larger conversation.
