the Great Dissent: John Henry Newman and Liberal Heresy in Bloomington, MN

"Alas," Newman said of liberalism, "it is an error overspreading, as a snare, the whole earth."
The Great Dissent
examines how from his implacable opposition to liberalism Newman developed a sweeping critique of modern values only rivaled in breadth and scorn by that of Nietzsche.
offers a revaluation of Newman's whole thought and establishes his place in the history of ideas as the leading English dissident from the liberalism of contemporary civilization and the foremost modern spokesman for the reality of dogmatic truth.
