Thomas Howard

    Thomas Howard est un écrivain et un érudit de renom dont la prose est réputée pour sa qualité exceptionnelle et son accent mis sur les aspects sacramentels et incarnatoires du christianisme. Influencé par des penseurs profonds tels que Newman, Chesterton et Augustin, son œuvre explore les dimensions transcendantes de la foi. Tout comme C.S. Lewis, qu'il admire profondément, les écrits d'Howard invitent les lecteurs à une considération réfléchie des réalités spirituelles. Sa voix distinctive offre une exploration convaincante de l'expérience chrétienne.

      In this new edition of a modern classic, Thomas Howard contrasts the Christian and secular worldviews, refreshing our minds with the illuminated vision of reality that inspired the world in times past and showing us that we cannot live meaningful lives without it. Howard explains in clear and beautiful prose the way materialism robs us of beauty, depth, and truth. With laser precision and lyrical ponderings he takes us through the dismal reductionist view of the world to the shimmering significance of the world as sign and sacrament. More timely now than when it was first written, this book is a prophetic examination of modern society's conscience.

      In his first full-length book since converting to Roman Catholicism over ten years ago, Thomas Howard presents his wonderful, refreshing insights on the "glad tidings" of the deeper meaning of Catholic piety, dogma, spirituality, vision and practice, rendered in his unique style of prose for which he is well-known. The book's chapters take the form of lay meditations on Catholic teaching and practice, opening up in practical and simple terms the richness at work in virtually every detail of Catholic prayer, piety, liturgy and experience.
