The Idea of a University: Defined and Illustrated in Nine DisCourses Delivered to the Catholics of Dublin in Occasional Lectures and Essays Addressed to the Members of The Catholic University
ANNOTATION
Newman's 1870 classic study on the value of integrated education and theology's place in the university curriculum.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
The issues that John Henry Newman raised--the place of religion and moral values in the university setting, the competing claims of liberal and professional education, the character of the academic community, the cultural role of literature, the relation of religion and science--have provoked discussion from Newman's time to our own.
