Books in the Collected Works of Bernard Lonergan series

In Method in Theology, Vol. 14, Lonergan's intention was to provide a set of methods that would guide a collaborative community in the ongoing construction of a theology that would move from recovery of the data through resolution of conflicts to contemporary formulations and applications.

Macroeconomic Dynamics represents the economic thought of Lonergan at the end of his career. His analysis breaks from centralist theory and practice towards a radically democratic perspective on surplus income and non-political control, and explores more fully the ideas introduced in For a New Political Economy.

For the edition of A Second Collection prepared for the Collected Works of Bernard Lonergan, editors Robert M. Doran and John D. Dadosky have added archival materials directly related to almost every one of the papers, bringing the reader closer to the original compositions.

This anthology contains Lonergan's lectures on philosophy and theology given during the later period of his life, 1965-1980, and document his development in the discipline during the years leading up to the publication of Method in Theology, and beyond to 1980.

Lonergan's De Deo Trino: Pars systematica, is presented here for the first time in a facing-page edition. It continues a particular strand in trinitarian theology, namely, the tradition that appeals to a psychological analogy for understanding trinitarian processions and relations.

The theology of redemption or soteriology, as the relevant themes are treated in biblical literature, Christian history, and contemporary theology, including Lonergan's famous treatment of 'the law of the cross,' with a significant treatment of the problem of good and evil.
