Laying the Foundation: A Handbook of Catholic Apologetics and Fundamental Theology - Joseph Clifford Fenton

Descriere

n nLaying the Foundation: A Handbook of Catholic Apologetics and Fundamental Theology is a classic text by the late Fr. Joseph Clifford Fenton, a highly respected author, professor, and theologian of the twentieth century. n nThis book appeared in 1942 under the rather unimposing title We Stand with Christ: an Essay in Catholic Apologetic. It should have become a classic. It is, I believe, the greatest work of apologetics produced in a time of superstar apologists such as F. J. Sheed, Ronald Knox, and Fulton Sheen. It represents the high point of apologetics as well as a gold standard for subsequent works of fundamental theology. --from the foreword by Scott Hahn, Franciscan University of Steubenville.n nAbout the authorn nFr. Joseph Clifford Fenton (1906-1969) was professor of fundamental dogmatic theology at the Catholic University of America for twenty-five years and for two decades edited the American Ecclesiastical Review. He was a member of the Pontifical Roman Theological Academy, served as counselor to the Sacred Congregation of Seminaries and Universities, and participated in the Second Vatican Council as a member of the preparatory Theological Commission, the Doctrinal Commission, and the Commission on Faith and Morals.n
