A timely and thought-provoking new work from one of France's foremost philosophers, A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment delves deep into the essence of what it means to be Catholic in the modern world. In this concise yet accessible book, Jean-Luc Marion intricately weaves the concept of catholicity as encompassing and universal into a conversation about the contemporary Catholic experience.
A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment addresses complex issues related to church-state separation and seeks to engage a broader Catholic audience that transcends national boundaries, social identities, and linguistic differences. Marion firmly asserts that Catholic universalism, rooted in the core values of communion and community, is not an outdated worldview but rather a perspective that possesses the potential to challenge the positivist rationality and nihilism that underpin our current political moment. By offering an insightful and sophisticated Catholic perspective on contemporary political and social realities, A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment makes a valuable contribution to the broader discourse.
This book is an invitation to explore the complexities of faith and society, and its insights will resonate with readers from all walks of life. Whether you are a practicing Catholic or someone interested in understanding the broader religious landscape, A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the world and their place within it.
