A good portion of this book consists of an introduction by Robert Coles that conveys the context in which the transcribed conversations between himself and Daniel Berrigan, SJ, happened. Since they happened in 1970, while Fr. Berrigan was living underground, that context will be absolutely necessary so many years later. The discussion between the activist priest and the activist psychiatrist is always meaningful and frequently profound. I was particularly taken by the section on "Twice Born Men(sic)" and by the back and forth about pride and humility. I was inspired by this book and others will be similarly moved.

A classic of faith-based activism--updated for a new generation. Why was Daniel Berrigan wanted by the FBI? Why did Robert Coles harbor a fugitive? Listen in to the conversations between these two great teachers as they struggle with what it means to put your faith to the test. Discover how their story of challenging the status quo during a time of great political, religious, and social change is just as applicable to our lives today. Thirty years ago, at the height of U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, Daniel Berrigan, a Jesuit priest, was wanted by the FBI for his nonviolent protest activities. He hid in the house of Robert Coles, who would later win the Pulitzer Prize. The two began a dialogue that encompasses a fascinating range of topics, from war, psychology, and violence, to social institutions, compassion, activism, and family life. With this expanded, anniversary edition of a classic, new generations of readers can examine for themselves how spirituality is not only for ourselves, but often demands action and personal risk in the public arena. New to this edition, Robert Coles offers historical perspective on this turbulent time and assesses the progress of faith-based activism in the years since. Daniel Berrigan challenges today's activists in a new afterword. Finally, a glossary of terms helps to clarify the key people, places, and movements that are often the subject of the Coles/Berrigan conversations. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
