** S. 237: „BOTH Canon Raven, in this second series of his Gifford Lectures, and Fr. Guardini set themselves to write of the Christian faith in a manner that is comprehensible to contemporaries, in a manner, therefore, that is within the experience or at least the intellectual imagination of contemporaries. Their endeavour springs from both charity and humility, and since few are the theologians who communicate with their fellow men it is an endeavour that merits the greatest respect. But of course for Guardini the end of the journey is the point from which he started; […] Guardini's book is a collection of twelve essays that were written during the last World War for bewildered German Christians, especially the young. They were written from the heart of contemporary experience, a re - thinking of Christian doctrine but in no sense a reinterpretation. They are fresh and vivid.“ | ** S. 237: „BOTH Canon Raven, in this second series of his Gifford Lectures, and Fr.

** S. 121 f.: This is an excellent translation of a series of twelve essays by the distinguished German educator and liturgist, Monsignor Romano Guardini, written during World War II when Christian life was deeply threatened by hostile doctrine. In order to elude, at least for a time, the tightening thought control, a group of Christian writers decided to publish booklets , each complete in itself, on a theme of special importance to contemporary man for distribution mainly as letter enclosures. By this means they escaped attention and carried on for some time until paper quota was suppressed. The twelve essays under the above title were Monsignor Guardini's contribution to the general project entitled ,Christliche Besinnung´. They all grew out of urgent questions asked by people in spiritual stress and actual physical threat. They were first delivered in a Berlin church threatened from without by air raid and from within by the ever present threat of secret police. Monsignor Guardini hopes „that some of the urgency of that time has been imparted to these brief statements of some of the fundamental truths of our faith.“ We believe that his hope have been magnificently realized. His brief statements and clarifications are on such their subjects as adoration, God's patience, God's dominion and man's freedom, the Lordship of Christ, Providence, revelation as history, faith as of overcoming and faith in various stages of life, dogma, the saints, the Adversary, i. e. the Devil, and purgatory. To each he brings not only the expected theological and biblical approach but also such profound metaphysical and psychological insight as to make these discussions the most proper object of the philosopher's interest. Indeed we have here a philosophy of faith on subjects of constant challenge to the man of faith in the contemporary world written by a religious leader who is in closest contact with the German Catholic laymen as well as clerical. Old subjects seem like new ones under the penetrating glance of this distinguished mind. We may be permitted a brief quotation: "A great and blessed mystery is adoration. In it man fulfills his ultimate obligation to God and at the same time safeguards his own soundness for it is the instrument of truth. ... True illness of mind and spirit sets in when a man no longer cherishes truth but despises it; when he uses it as a means to his own end; when in the depth of his soul truth ceases to be to him the primary, the most important concern. He has lost the inner certainty of direction. He lacks answer to those final questions - why? to what purpose? and his whole being is affected." There indeed is a new interpretation and understanding of very old subjects for the confused and the troubled in conscience as well as the outright sceptic.“ | ** S. 121 f.: This is an excellent translation of a series of twelve essays by the distinguished German educator and liturgist, Monsignor Romano Guardini, written during World War II when Christian life was deeply threatened by hostile doctrine.

** S. 151: „ROMANO GUARDINI, born of Italian parents in Germany, is a writer who combines the tendency of the German to be searching and methodical with the clarity of the Latin. In German, as well as in this excellent translation, one is always amazed at Guardini's sure-footed leadership through the thorniest and rockiest problems of the supernatural and the natural. With a sure grasp and a steady hand, in deceptively simple language, Guardini elimi nates all confusing verbiage and approaches his problem steadily and engagingly. Guardini is not only a consummate theologian, but a first rate psychologist, and is well informed in the fields of history, literature, science, and sociology. No one - with perhaps the exception of Jacques Maritain - has such a hold on the problems uppermost in the mind of modern man. His description of the different ages of man, the resulting crises of the faith, and their causes is a classic. No one has ever given a more Biblical explanation of the Christian meaning of Providence. Among Catholics Guardini - and his growing school - holds a unique position in his complete disregard of post-Tridentine apologetics, in his refusal to be sectarian, his lack of scholastic pretense and in his return to the person of our Lord. You always know that he has studied St. Thomas and patristic theology and that he is familiar with the mystics of old as well as of our own day, but there is no appeal to them, no quoting of dusted-off authorities, no quarreling or “opinionating." Guardini seems to lead you back to the prime source of Revelation with reason endowed by grace. His critics have often reproached him for being interested only in marginal issues and less in God than in the phenomenon of religion and have even seen in him a refined and irenic agnostic. How wrong they were! This book, like the forthcoming English translation of his magnum opus, shows a Catholicity that is so honest, so orthodox, so moderate, so profound that I would not hesitate to call him the bringer of a twentieth century "devotio moderna.” We should have more of Guardini. His quiet voice, like those of Otto Karrer, Lortz, Rahner, should be heard in America.“ | ** S. 151: „ROMANO GUARDINI, born of Italian parents in Germany, is a writer who combines the tendency of the German to be searching and methodical with the clarity of the Latin.
