A Critique of Cardinal Newman's Exposition of the Illative Sense offers a detailed examination and response to Cardinal John Henry Newman's theory of the illative sense, a concept central to his philosophy of religious belief and epistemology. This volume includes the original exposition by Newman and a critical analysis by T. Arnold Haultain, framed as a letter to Archbishop John Joseph Lynch.
Haultain's critique delves into the nuances of Newman's argument, challenging its logical foundations and implications for religious doctrine. The exchange provides valuable insights into the intellectual debates of the late 19th century concerning faith, reason, and the nature of knowledge. This book is essential reading for scholars and students interested in Newman's philosophy, Catholic theology, and the history of ideas.
