Description | Correspondence between Fr Francis Courtney SJ and Fr Philip Caraman SJ (in Tonsberg, Norway) regarding Caraman’s forthcoming book on the Congregatio de Auxiliis - the commission set up by Pope Clement VIII to settle a dispute between Dominican and Jesuit theologians concerning grace and predestination.
Caraman has been commissioned to write the Fourth Centenary Volume for the Gregorian which will assist in fundraising. He requests a 1,500 word account from Courtney on the De Auxiliis Controversy in non-theological language and consults him on potential illustrations and title pages for the book. They discuss possible title pages. Courtney sends his account. The series concludes with Caraman thanking Courtney for providing intricacies of the controversy. Caraman discusses a benefactor who will be attending a reception attended by Cardinal Garrone and Fr Arrupe amongst others. |
