Journal of a Theologian (1946-1956)

The journal chronicles Yves Congar's experiences and observations within the Catholic Church from 1946 to 1956, highlighting his direct and indirect involvement in significant events during this tumultuous period. Fresh from captivity, Congar faced suspicion and sanctions for his writings, providing a unique perspective on the tension between theological research and the Roman magisterium under Pius XII. This collection serves as an exceptional document of the intellectual life of the Church in the aftermath of World War II.
