Thomas A. Howard

    Thomas Howard is a celebrated writer and scholar whose prose is noted for its exceptional stylistic quality. He delves deeply into the sacramental, incarnational, and transcendent aspects of Christianity. Influenced by the giants of Catholic tradition, his writing explores profound questions of faith and life. Much like C.S. Lewis, whose work he has studied, Howard offers readers penetrating insights into spiritual reality.

      In shaping the modern academy and in setting the agenda of modern Christian theology, few institutions have been as influential as the German universities of the nineteenth century. This book examines the rise of the modern German university from the standpoint of the Protestant theological faculty, focusing especially on the University of Berlin (1810), Prussia's flagship university in the nineteenth century. In contradistinction to historians of modern higher education who often overlook theology, and to theologians who are frequently inattentive to the social and institutional contexts of religious thought, Thomas Albert Howard argues that modern university development and the trajectory of modern Protestant theology in Germany should be understood as interrelated phenomena.

      Through his prolific and highly regarded writings, Thomas Howard's name is familiar to Protestants and Catholics alike. With grace, charm, and wit, Dr. Howard describes his journey from Evangelicalism to Anglicanism, and finally, to the Church of Rome. In a world saturated with fashionable unbelief, Howard's testimony inspires and informs. This is the personal story of a man's search for spiritual fulfillment that includes a detailed explanation of the factors that led him to his ultimate destination. It is a testimony to the difficulty faced by a life-long, well-known Protestant in taking that final step across the threshold to Catholicism. Howard clearly explains the challenges of learning and accepting some doctrines that were completely new to him, and the reactions one might face from friends and family.
