Dans l'histoire du Concile Vatican II, le thologien belge (Louvain) Grard Philips (1899-1972) se montre un des acteurs principaux. En tant que secrtaire adjoint de la Commission doctrinale du Concile, il a jou un grand rle dans la rdaction de plusieurs documents importants de Vatican II (Lumen Gentium, Dei Verbum, Gaudium et Spes...). La prsente publication offre aux lecteurs une dition bilingue (texte originel nerlandais avec traduction franaise) des notes personnelles de Mgr Philips, avec dans les notes critiques un tas de prcisions historiques, de documents non publis, et fournie d'une index des personnes offrant une notice biographique concernant chaque auteur. Cette dition du Journal Philips, qui contient souvent des pages mouvantes, donne ainsi un aperu unique de l'histoire conciliaire vu par un 'insider'.
Drawing on archive materials collected worldwide, the present study aims at revising the contemporary reading of the preparation period of Vatican II, in particular concerning the catholic debate on revelation theology and the development of biblical exegesis.
“An outstanding scientific autobiography... I remain impressed by its thoughtfulness and charm.” — Steve K. Lamoreaux, American Journal of Physics “[A] rich autobiography and history-of-atomic-physics... One is impressed by Casimir’s memory for detail and zeal to find corroboration for the stories he tells. And they are splendid tales: Gamow’s playful pranks in Copenhagen: conversations with Lev Landau, ardent revolutionary but no Marxist; the tragedy of Ehrenfest, who killed himself after shooting his hopelessly retarded son... A charming, idiosyncratic, and meaningful account of events and personalities that changed physics.” — Kirkus “I myself read [this book] with fasci...

What does it mean to say that Scripture is God's Word? And just how true is the Bible? Though sometimes dismissed as "fundamentalist" concerns, these questions also sent twentieth-century Catholic theology searching for a new paradigm of biblical inspiration. Theologians repeatedly attempted to reconcile the traditional conviction that the Bible shares in the omniscience of its divine author with scholarly findings that suggested otherwise. Joseph Ratzinger contributed both negatively and positively to this project, deconstructing the regnant manualist models of inspiration and constructing an alternative inspired by St. Bonaventure. The result is an ecclesial model of surprising comprehensi...
Yves Congar was the most significant voice in Catholic pneumatology in the twentieth century. This new collection of short pieces makes his thought accessible to a broad range of readers – scholars, teachers, ecumenists and laity – and thus helps to ensure that an important theological voice, one that influenced many of the documents of the Second Vatican Council, continues to be heard. The Spirit of God brings together for the first time eight of Yves Congar’s previously untranslated writings on the Holy Spirit composed after Vatican II (from 1969 to 1985). Two of these selections offer general overviews of Congar’s pneumatology, a pneumatology based upon Scripture and the Tradition...
