Presenting a robust and philosophically based account of education
from the Catholic point of view, Sean Whittle engages with
important debates and questions concerning the nature and purpose
of Catholic education and schooling. The book opens with a review
of the criticisms that have emerged about the prevalence of
Catholic schools within the state system and, indeed, about the
very notion of there being such a thing as 'Catholic education'.
The author then goes on to survey official Church teaching on
education and the work of key Catholic thinkers, Newman and
Maritain, before moving on to discuss the writings of Karl Rahner,
a leading twentieth century theologian. A Theory of Catholic
Education argues that Rahner's approach, with his focus on the
place of mystery in human experience, provides a way forward.
Ultimately, Whittle demonstrates how Catholic theology can offer a
unique and much needed theory of education.
