    Synopsis

    An influential Church of England vicar, John Henry Newman stunned the Anglican community in 1843 when he joined the Roman Catholic Church. Protestant clergyman Charles Kingsley launched the most scathing attacks against Newman and this was Newman's brilliant response. A spiritual autobiography, Apologia Pro Vita Sua explores the very depths and nature of Christianity.
     

    Annotation

    John Henry Newman's conversion to Roman Catholicism rocked the Church of England to its foundation and escalated the spread of virulent anti-catholicism in Victorian England. A rigorous examination of his own religious development, enlivened by touches of satire and sometimes invective, Apologia pro Vita Sua is a spiritual autobiography of great power.
