Nouvelle Theologie - New Theology - Inheritor of Modernism, Precursor of Vatican II

This is an introduction to the most influential movement in Catholic theology in the 20th century which prepared the ground for the Second Vatican Council. It sheds new light on the theological movement that led up to and inspired the Second Vatican Council and is a most needed contribution to the ongoing heated discussions about the ''hermeneutics of the Council''.>
