John Henry Newman

    21. Februar 1801 – 11. August 1890

    John Henry Newman war eine Schlüsselfigur der englischen Religionsgeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts, der Mitte der 1830er Jahre national bekannt wurde. Ursprünglich ein akademischer Gelehrter und Priester der Church of England, wurde er zu einer führenden Stimme der Oxford-Bewegung, die sich für die Wiedereingliederung katholischer Traditionen einsetzte. Seine intellektuelle Reise gipfelte in seiner Konversion zum Katholizismus, wo er weiterhin erheblichen Einfluss ausübte. Newmans Schriften, die sich durch scharfen Intellekt und tiefgründige spirituelle Einsichten auszeichnen, erforschen die komplexe Beziehung zwischen Glauben, Vernunft und der Kirche und bieten bleibende Reflexionen für heutige Leser.

    • So viele Tage ohne dich … Seit Annis Mutter bei einem Unfall ums Leben gekommen ist, ist nichts mehr, wie es einmal war. Ihre Schwester Sally schweigt sich aus, ihr Bruder Collin schlägt auf sein Schlagzeug ein und der Vater sitzt den ganzen Tag vor dem Fernseher. Aber zum Glück sind da die liebevollen Großeltern und Tanten, die verständnisvolle Lehrerin und ihre allerbeste Freundin Orla, die immer zu Anni hält und sie mit einem Witz zum Lachen bringt. John Newman hat einen anrührenden, lebensbejahenden und humorvollen Roman geschrieben, der zu Tränen rührt und gleichzeitig Hoffnung und Zuversicht vermittelt.

    • Apologia pro vita sua

      Geschichte meiner religiösen Überzeugungen

      Die Apologia gilt als ein bedeutender literarischer und spiritueller Klassiker. Der Autor schildert seine Konversion, beginnend mit Kindheitserfahrungen bis hin zu seinem überzeugten Beitritt zur römisch-katholischen Kirche nach Jahren des Studiums. Als anglikanischer Theologe an der Universität Oxford kämpfte er gegen den aufkommenden Liberalismus in seiner Kirche. Durch das Studium der Kirchenväter setzte sich John Henry Newman intensiv mit den Grundprinzipien des Glaubens auseinander. Er veröffentlichte Traktate zur Verteidigung des konservativen anglikanischen Glaubens, wurde jedoch von den Bischöfen stark kritisiert. Infolgedessen gab er seine Ämter auf und zog sich nach Littlemore zurück. In einem tiefgründigen Denkprozess erkannte er, dass nur die römisch-katholische Kirche auf den Lehren der Urkirche basiert. Dies markierte den Beginn seiner Hinwendung zum katholischen Glauben. Er dokumentiert die Tragik seines Übertritts mit akribischer Sorgfalt und lässt die Quellen für sich sprechen. Dieses Werk zeigt John Henry Newman als sensiblen, zurückhaltenden Menschen und großen Denker. Mit einem Beitrag von Joseph Kardinal Ratzinger, Benedikt XVI, sowie einer Einleitung von Prof. Dr. Roman A. Siebenrock, Vorsitzender der Deutschen Newman Gesellschaft e. V.

    • Exploring the nature of prejudice against the Catholic Religion, the text delves into philosophical and societal misconceptions, asserting that such biases do not equate to truth. It challenges the notion that miracles disrupt natural order and critiques the belief that the Catholic Church hinders societal progress and freedom. The author argues for the concept of indefectibility in religious certitude, suggesting that genuine certitude can be discerned despite the absence of a definitive internal test. The discussion emphasizes the complexity of certitude and its implications for faith.

      John Henry Newman and other leaders of the movement sought a renewal of 'Catholic', or Roman Catholic, thought and practice within the Church of England. They published their ideas on the theological, pastoral and devotional problems that they perceived within the church in ninety 'Tracts for the Times' (1833-1841). Here, the majority of John Henry Newman's contributions to the series 'Tracts for the Times' have been collected in one volume.

      "Everybody tells you Dorset is a house or mansion county, not a church county...Yet when one sets down all one has seen of Dorset churches,..one suddenly realizes how much one has enjoyed", wrote Pevsner at the conclusion of his journey. The county provides many unexpected pleasures in ecclesiastical buildings, from the Norman arches of Wimborne Minster, the Early English solemnity of Milton Abbey, to the splendour of Sherborne and the monuments and furnishings of numerous smaller buildings. Of castles, mansions and houses, Dorset boasts the evocative ruins of Corfe; the splendid Kingston Lacy; mighty Milton Abbey House and a wealth of more modest homes. But the county also possesses fine towns and villages, from the Georgian elegance of Weymouth and Lyme Regis, to the the model estate village of Milton Abbas.

      In this widely acclaimed work, James Ackerman considers in detail the buildings designed by Michelangelo in Florence and Rome—including the Medici Chapel, the Farnese Palace, the Basilica of St. Peter, and the Capitoline Hill. He then turns to an examination of the artist's architectural drawings, theory, and practice. As Ackerman points out, Michelangelo worked on many projects started or completed by other architects. Consequently this study provides insights into the achievements of the whole profession during the sixteenth century. The text is supplemented with 140 black-and-white illustrations and is followed by a scholarly catalog of Michelangelo's buildings that discusses chronology, authorship, and condition. For this second edition, Ackerman has made extensive revisions in the catalog to encompass new material that has been published on the subject since 1970.

      John Henry Newman (1801–1890) se proslavil nejprve jako představitel reformního hnutí v anglikánské církvi, intenzivní studium dějin křesťanství jej však přivedlo až ke vstupu do katolické církve (1845). Příklad kardinála Newmana jako poctivého myslitele, teologa, pastýře a muže hlubokého duchovního života vyzdvihl papež Benedikt XVI. v září 2010, když jej během své návštěvy Velké Británie prohlásil za blahoslaveného. Z bohatého díla autora, který byl dosud v češtině nedostupný, předkládáme výběr zamyšlení, úryvků z kázání a meditací, které mohou inspirovat i křesťany 21. století.

    • Kardinál John Henry Newman (1801 — 1890) Jako duchovní anglikánské církve a univerzitní kazatel v Oxfordu se stal vedoucí osobností volného sdružení, jehož cílem byla mravní a náboženská obnova anglikanismu. Jeho záměrem bylo ukázat, že anglikánská církev je nejen anglickým národním dědictvím, ale pravou církví Kristovou. Poctivost a hloubka bádání v dějinách starověké církve jej nakonec dovedly k tušení, že skutečnou nástupkyní prvotní církve je římská církev. Po sedmi letech postupné konverze dospěl do plného společenství katolické církve, v níž přijal kněžské svěcení a později od papeže Lva XIII. dokonce kardinálskou hodnost. Protože do církve přišel po cestě vytříbených argumentů, byl předurčen stát se jejím významným apologetou. Jeho působení znamenalo pro katolickou církev v Anglii dobu renesance. V roce 2010 byl papežem Benediktem XVI. prohlášen za blahoslaveného.

      Wybór pism czołowego myśliciela politycznego XVIII w., teoretyka instytucji partii i opozycji, który badał idee podziału władzy, wolności i patriotyzmu. W tomie znajduje się najsłynniejsze dzieło Bolingbroke'a, zawierające refleksje o dobrym władcy, będące odpowiedzią na Księcia Machiavelliego, oraz inne ważne prace łączące teoretyczną analizę z praktyką polityczną. Wśród nich List do sir Williama Windhama, ukazujący kulisy nieudanego powstania jakobickiego w 1715 r., przedstawiający świat dworskich intryg, walk frakcji i dyplomatycznych negocjacji. Henry St John, 1. wicehrabia Bolingbroke (1678-1751), był angielskim politykiem, ministrem królowej Anny Stuart i jednym z przywódców torysów. Po współpracy z Jakubem III Stuartem, pretendentem do brytyjskiego tronu, utracił tytuł i majątek, a także nałożono na niego karę śmierci. Po kilku latach na emigracji we Francji, po powrocie do Anglii stał się kluczową postacią opozycji wobec rządów Roberta Walpole'a, tworząc istotne teksty polityczne. Przypisuje mu się znaczącą rolę w kształtowaniu brytyjskiego parlamentaryzmu oraz ewolucji programowej torysów, inspirując Monteskiusza i amerykańskich kolonistów walczących o swoje prawa.

A Newman odpovedá ‒ elegantne, inteligentne a presvedčivo ‒ podobne ako jeho Majster, ktorému takisto položili otázku o vzťahu cisára a Boha.
