John Henry Newman, aged 48, now a Catholic priest, arrives in
Birmingham in 1849 as the head of a religious community. Discourses
Addressed to Mixed Congregations, "more rhetorical than my former
sermons," examines Catholicism from the inside and deals with the
popular prejudices which contemporaries entertained of it. We can
see the same touch which he displayed in the pulpit of St. Mary's
now used to explain the truths of the faith which he had embraced.
But he allows his humor and irony to enable him to reach those "who
do not narrow their belief to their experience." This edition
reveals the context of the Discourses and contains a wealth of
references.
