The Making of Catholic
Theology: The Modern Period
(
c.
1900-2000)
This course will study the political, cultural and
religious context in which, through a series of
movements of thought, Catholic theology
changed profoundly in the period 1900-2000.
Among these factors are the effects of the First
and Second World Wars, the anti-modernist
regime that was in the ascendant at the
beginning of the twentieth century, the
movement known as ‘resourcement’, the
liturgical movement, the opening to critical and
historical Catholic hermeneutics in biblical
studies, and the Second Vatican Council.

The Making of Catholic
Theology: The Patristic Period
This course will study the early centuries of the
Church’s history. These witnessed the search
for true Christian identity in relation to the
acknowledged ancestry in Judaism. It was
a period of developing dialogue with the
surrounding cultures, and the critical
appropriation of some of the best elements of
the philosophical schools. The variety of genres
of patristic writings will be explored and students
will be encouraged to adopt a ‘hands-on’
approach to reading selected patristic texts.
