Publisher's Synopsis
This volume comprises a reproduction of Murray's dissertation completed in 1937 at the Gregorian University in Rome. The dissertation is essentially a study of the analysis of faith in the writings of Matthias Joseph Scheeben (1835-1888), one of the most original Catholic theologians of the 19th century. A 51-page introduction by Hughson gives a historical background, insights into Scheeben's thought, and points of reference for Murray's later work in social ethics.
