Thomas K. Carr examines the religious epistemology of John Henry
Newman alongside the philosophical hermeneutics of Hans-Georg
Gadamer. The two writers are found to cover a surprising amount of
common ground: They make similar claims, and they fall into similar
errors. A critical examination of four of Newman's leading ideas --
first principles, antecedent probability, doctrinal development,
and the illative sense -- are compared with such Gadamerian themes
as self-understanding, Bildung, projection, tradition, and the
fusion of horizons. Carr concludes with a constructive proposal
that applies a Newman-Gadamer synthesis to questions about
knowledge of God.
