Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
A great figure of 20th century Catholic theology, Henri Cardinal de Lubac SJ is renowned for his attention to the doctrine of the Church and its life within the contemporary world. In this book, de Lubac opens an initial exploration of the ways in which the Church has been understood Eucharistically, and gives new expression to that mystery in which the Church is believed to consist. As one whose generous and fervent spirit contributed significantly to the thinking of the Second Vatican Council, de Lubac's influence has been widespread, making a substantial impact on the work of not only Catholic but also Protestant and Orthodox theologians. With the publication of this English translation of Corpus Mysticum, this important text of contemporary Catholic ecclesiology and sacramental theology is made available to the English-speaking world and takes its place among the growing number of de Lubac's works now accessible to Anglophone scholars.
'This translation of Corpus Mysticum is a gift to medieval historians, liturgists, ecclesiologists, and any Christian interested in a profoundly prophetic reading of one of the central mysteries of her or his religion. This is one of a very few books that has formed our present consciousness of who we are as Catholics and Christians. To preserve acess to it will significantly aid our attempts to move into a future to some extent already foreshadowed in de Lubac's study of the past.' --Gary Macy, University of San Diego
