About this product

Product Information

There is so much debate about the Catholic Church today. How can an institution rocked by scandal survive? The answer is its spirit. In 1924, Karl Adam's classic work The Spirit of Catholicism caught the zeitgeist and was an international bestseller. The need for a similar book for our times is very urgent and here it is. As now, the privatization and spiritualization of religion was a major issue. Boland stresses however the social, embodied character of Catholicism, a fact he regards as crucial for the social and political situation in which we find ourselves today. We are not just witness to the presence of Christ's body under the form of bread but also to Christ's body as the community of those who have come to believe in Christ. This is the "earthen vessel" in which a treasure is carried and Catholicism acknowledges and celebrates this embodiment. This is the spirit of Catholicism.

Reviews
"Overall, this book is a delight. Boland clearly enjoys his subject and takes great pleasure in handing on his knowledge and understanding of the Church. [...] A joy to read. [...] I hugely enjoyed this book, which is at once erudite and accessible, and offers a succinct yet lucid account of the Church's self-understanding both now and throughout history.[...] It will be a pleasurable and informative read for all." - The Tablet ' "Dominican Father Vivian Boland...brings the expertise of a deft and thorough theologian to the topic. His is a dense volume with helpful insights."- The Central Minnesota Catholic "This book would be at the top of a recommended reading list such is its scholarship, seen in its spectrum of scripture and selected theologians... This book embodies the scriptural, sacramental and spiritual energy for both participation and mission." - The Furrow "[ The Spirit of Catholicism ] is a most remarkably rich progression of theological thinking, subject after subject dealt with in depth and precision, with awareness of the tradition as well as what is being thought about it in the contemporary work of theologians. And all of it being bound together with the thread of Catholicism. ... [Boland] has given us what I would like to call a positive Summa of all that is Catholic in the work of Christ and the Spirit in God's world." - Liam Walsh OP, Vice-rector emeritus, University of Fribourg, Overall, this book is a delight .
