John Henry Newman Box Set: The Idea of a John Henry Newman
John Henry Newman was an influential figure in the Church of England who shocked the Anglican community in 1843 when he joined the Roman Catholic Church. Newman's spiritual autobiography, Apologia Pro Vita Sua, is a classic of English literature. Besides serving as an eloquent response to his critics, it also explores the nature of Christianity and its place in the world. Newman’s work The Idea of a University covers topics such as the character of the academic community, the place of religion and moral values in the university milieu, the cultural role of literature and the relation of religion and science. The book has had a deep and lasting influence on the goals of higher education in the Anglosphere.
