Johann Adam Moehler was twenty-nine years old and a lecturer at
theCatholic seminary in Tubingen when he wrote Die Einheit in der
Kirche(Unity in the Church) in 1825. Its two German editions and
French translations influenced Catholic authors well into the
twentieth century, and the book remains an important example of the
early-nineteenth-century Catholic Awakening. In Unity in the
Church, Moehler upholds a romantic view of the Catholic Church by
describing it as the organic development of the life-giving Holy
Spirit. This, he insisted, was the teaching of the earliest
Christian writers, whom he discusses and quotes at length
throughout the book. Although Moehler was primarily writing as an
apologist for the Catholic faith against Protestantism, his work is
marked by careful study of Protestant sources, respect for
Protestant thought and thinkers, and a reconciliatory tone. In this
book he uses the works of the church fathers to demonstrateto his
contemporary Protestant opponents that the Scripturesarose from
within the church and that the earliest heresies resulted as
individuals separated themselves from tradition, which has as its
life source the Spirit. The Spirit works through tradition as the
source of the church's mystical and intellectual unity, a unity
which allowed for diversity, but which over time formed itself
under bishops. According to Moehler, the principle of unity in the
church must continue until it reaches its fullest form; thus, the
unity of the episcopate and all believers must represent itself in
one church and one bishop. A single bishop, the primate, is the
center of the living unity of the whole church. This translation is
aimed at individuals interested in the development of Catholicism
in the modern world and in Catholic-Protestant dialogue and
ecumenism generally. It is also an important work for historians
and theologians specializing in Catholic historiography, the
Scripture-tradition relationship, issues of church and state, and
Catholic liberalism.
