Summary: | This book is a textbook suitable for a general readership. In a postscript the author addresses himself directly to his audience in suggesting that catechesis should find an active place within the Church in its address to European culture. As such it is clear that he is addressing an audience for which the concept of catechesis is relatively foreign and to whom the text has provided an initial introduction. Nonetheless an overall shape in the author's argument does emerge; in particular he traces the manner in which the content of catechesis has a degree of common territory across the patristic period, and the suggestion that there were at least two stages in the catechumenate, floated by Paul Bradshaw in JTS, ns 50 (1999), pp. |
