John Paul II's Ex Corde Ecclesiae

John Paul II was aware of the muddled thinking about the nature of reason that developed during the Enlightenment. In seeking to re-establish a more substantial application of reason, he proposed that Catholic universities return to the much more expansive concept of the use of reason within the context of faith. This book is a commentary on his constitution Ex corde ecclesiae and its application of the analysis of faith and reason that appeared later in Fides et ratio.
