Inhoudsopgave:
The late Jesuit theologian shares how the imagination âanimates our aspirations, our service, and a deeper connection to God and to one anotherâ (John J. DeGioia, President of Georgetown University). âThis book is a pedagogical memoir enabling the reader to enter the late Jesuit Professor James Walshâs Georgetown University classroom in various moments. Rev. Walsh considered imagination central to lived religion in the broadest sense, namely the vision of the prophet, the exegesis of the theologian, the teaching of the professor, the preaching of the pastor, and the experiences of the student, the seeker and the believer. And [Seeing Things] stands as an eloquent and accessible mini-course in the place of imagination in moral theology, as well as the spiritual testament of a caring and loving teacher, healer, and friend.â âDavid Goldfrank, Professor of History, Georgetown University âThis study is a fascinating presentation of how we imagine ourselves and the context of the world around us. Father Walshâs long-standing commitment to helping his students and colleagues understand both elevates the text to a unique level of contemplation.â âRonald Jonson, Professor Emeritus of History, Georgetown University |
