American Catholic Traditions: Resources for RenewalSandra Yocum Mize, William L. Portier "American Catholic Traditions gathers together essays that make a new scholarship accessible to a wide audience. The contributors recover and reamplify the voices of such American Catholic pioneers as William F. Lynch and Francis Gigot. Their chorus is joined and enriched by a host of others, from Dorothy Day and the Grail women to Black Elk and the film characters of John Ford. Indeed, the history of American Catholic life and thought holds the kinds of intellectual and spiritual resources needed to renew American Catholic theology and rescue it from abstraction." "American Catholic Traditions offers stimulating resources for recovering the roots of American Catholicism to theologians, teachers, scholars and students, and all those who want to learn and reflect on the roots of American Catholicism and its meaning today."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
