M. Katherine Tillman “A Rhetoric in Conduct”: The Gentleman of the University and the Gentleman of the Oratory
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
Newman’s explicit presentation of the ideal type, “the gentleman,” appears first and foremost in his Oratory papers of 1847 and 1848, and appears only secondarily, and then but partially, four and five years later in his Dublin Discourses of 1852 (The Idea of a University). This essay traces lines of similarity and of difference between these successive portraits and distinguishes both from the attractive, better-known sketch Newman presents as Lord Shaftesbury’s, the “beau ideal” of the man of the world.

Patrick J. Fletcher Newman and Natural Theology
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
Although the second and third University Discourses in Newman’s Idea of a University are well known for according theology a place in a university education by showing the relationship of theology to the other sciences, this essay points out that Newman was also arguing against the “natural theology” of British thinkers like William Paley, Lord Brougham, Sir Robert Peel, and Bishop Edward Maltby, who maintained that the study of the natural sciences would necessarily lead to religion; Newman objected that this kind of “natural theology” could easily lead to deism or pantheism.

David Delio “Calculated To Undermine Things Established”: Newman’s Fourteenth Oxford University Sermon
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This study depicts Newman’s fourteenth Oxford University Sermon as a creative response to two controversial events in his life: the first involved the Tamworth Reading Room—Newman’s satirical critique of Robert Peel’s view of education and religion; the second concerned his advocacy of the compatibility of Anglican and Roman Catholic doctrines which he articulated in his divisive Tract 90.

John R. Connolly Newman’s Notion of the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the Parochial and Plain Sermons
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This essay analyzes Newman’s understanding of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in his Parochial and Plain Sermons (1825–1843): the nature of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit; the role of the Holy Spirit in regeneration; the appropriation of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the Christian through baptism; and the role of the Holy Spirit outside the Church. The final section indicates how some aspects of Newman’s theology of the Holy Spirit are still relevant for the discussion about the Holy Spirit in contemporary Catholic theology.

Kevin Mongrain John Henry Newman on Ecclesial Spiritual Life
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This essay is a theological interpretation of John Henry Newman’s 1877 Preface to the third edition of the Via Media of the Anglican Church. Looking at the 1877 Preface through the lens of his earlier Anglican sermons, particularly his Parochial and Plain Sermons, this essay explores Newman’s general pneumatology and its influence on his ecclesiology and considers the spirituality underlying Newman’s Christocentric and Trinitarian vision of the Church as a mutually informing and correcting symbiosis of the spiritual, theological, and hierarchical dimensions of Christian faith.

Ono Ekeh The Phenomenological Context and Transcendentalism of John Henry Newman and Edmund Husserl
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
John Henry Newman has rightly been hailed as a giant in the Catholic intellectual tradition. His contributions to theology, literature, and education have been studied at length; however, his contribution to philosophy has not received appropriate attention. This essay 1) explores Newman’s unique philosophical insights in terms of the phenomenological tradition of Edmund Husserl; 2) analyzes the transcendental approach of certain British scientists—notably Ronald Knox and Charles Darwin; and 3) discusses how Newman might be considered a phenomenologist.

Thomas Poynor “How Can These Things Be?”: Newman’s Anglican Sermon on “The Christian Mysteries”
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
This study considers three aspects of “The Christian Mysteries,” one of Newman’s early Anglican sermons: 1) the use of Scripture in the exposition of the Mysteries of Faith; 2) the definition of Mystery; and 3) the moral effect of Mystery

Donald Graham Newman’s Sermon on “The Mystery of the Holy Trinity”: A Response to Richard Whately?
abstract | view |  rights & permissions | cited by
After discussing the contents of this sermon—which is structured around the Athanasian Creed and emphasizes the inner life of the Trinity—this study raises the question of whether Newman wrote this sermon as a response to the Trinitarian heterodoxy of his one-time mentor, Richard Whately, Anglican Archbishop of Dublin.
