| Summary: | When seeking to have the title of his doctoral dissertation on action inscribed at the Sorbonne in 1887, Blondel was first told that it possessed insufficient philosophic merit for approval. It is fortunate that he nonetheless pursued his chosen topic, because it laid the foundations of a Christian philosophy which profoundly shaped modern French theology. This major study of his Christology includes contributions by seven leading Blondel scholars which, prepared collaboratively, are of a consistently high standard., Yvette Périco sheds new light on how, in Blondel's early years, his philosophy developed in the context of Christian Scripture, faith, and observance. |
