The Benedictine Beda Mayr, OSB, (1742-1794) was one of the main
figures of the German Catholic Enlightenment. He was not only the
first Catholic to wrestle with the challenges of Reimarus and
Lessing, but also the first to develop an ecumenical methodology
for a reunion of the churches. The text, translated from the German
original for the first time, presents a theologian who
intentionally went to the margins of orthodoxy in order to allow
for more interconfessional dialogue. Mayr argued that Catholic
theology should follow minority opinions for unsettled dogmatic
questions, which would allow for easier union agreements with
Protestant churches. Moreover, he suggested limiting ecclesial
infallibility to directly revealed truths, thereby reducing the
authoritative truth claims of conciliar or papal decisions.
Although the study of Catholic Enlightenment is booming among
historians and theologians, too few texts are available in reliable
translations. A major strength of this edition is not only that its
introduction introduces the reader to the colorful landscape of
eighteenth-century theological discussions, but also presents the
entire text of Mayr's book (with the exception of its appendix)
thereby allowing the reader to see the strengths and weaknesses of
Enlightenment ecumenism. Mayr's Limited Infallibility was put on
the Index of Forbidden Books, on which it remained until the 20th
Century. It invites readers to a modern, non-scholastic way of
theologizing for the sake of Christian unity.
