Summary:
The papers in this volume cover a period of Fergus Kerr's writing from 1961 to 2018. The collection of essays covers a wide range of philosophical and theological issues, literary figures, philosophers and theologians. Each of these essays not only speaks to a particular situation, but is rooted in the life of a friar of the Dominican order, its own history in Britain, and its theological vision, a vision which Fergus has helped to shape over many years.
