The Bible and the Crisis of Modernism  tells the dramatic story of the ultimate acceptance of this modern method by the Catholic Church as it worked out the relationship between faith and reason in view of advances in the social and natural sciences. Particular attention to the contributions of Czech theologians to the field of biblical exegesis foregrounds the tensions at play in the churchs gradual recognition of the value of the historical-critical method to a better understanding of the Christian scriptures.  In this extensive study of the churchs response to the historical-critical method,Petráček broaches wider topics,such as the relationship between the Catholic Church and society in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries,the modernization of the church in the face of a changing world,the balance between institutional authority and individual freedom of conscience,and the balance between scholarly independence and ecclesial convictions.
