Duffy

edit

Copied from Talk:Catholic Church [1] [2]

From what I've seen (note that I do not have access to many scholarly reviews), Duffy's book is well-regarded. From my own reading, I would not have been able to tell the author's religious persuasion - it did a much better job than Bokenkotter's book of presenting positives and negatives of history.

  • MacCulloch uses it as a source; at the end of his book MacCulloch gives an overview of books that he thinks are good reference books for Christian history. P. 1099 he states- "Christian history lends itself to particular themes treated over long periods. A model of popular history covering two millenia is E. Duffy, Saints and Sinners...". MacCulloch then goes on to describe several other books, including a few other histories of the papacy.
  • Henry Chadwick, who is highly respected as a historian of Christianity, did a review of Duffy's book and two other histories of the papacy for the New York Times [3] and concludes that Eamon Duffy, a medieval historian at Cambridge University, includes both good illustrations and a distinguished text; his book, designed as the basis for a television series in 1998, appears to be particularly good value. All three books contain a catalogue of popes, with McBrien and Duffy offering plenty of historical facts and sobering, valuable judgments.
  • From The Contemporary Review [4]- His present work, Saints and Sinners, is designed for a more general reader, indeed as a 'companion volume' to a television series. Yet this is no slight, pretty picture book. It is the best one-volume modern history of the oldest institution in the Western world.
  • Anyone have access to this scholarly review from the Journal of Early Christian Studies? [5]
Here's the core of it: "Eamon Duffy is a professional historian of the modern period. His account of the papacy to Gregory the Great provides a readable, well-written and balanced guide. He weaves his way skillfully through Roman history, theological controversy, and East-West conflicts. He maintains this high standard throughout the book. ... Duffy has also provided seven maps, a glossary of terms and a good bibliography. Errors are few (Constantine died in 337, not 347). ... The book is best suited to a survey of church or papal history. Those teaching just the Early Christian period will probably prefer the work of our late colleague Robert Eno, The Rise of the Papacy (1990), but if one does not wish to read or assign a book-length study of the early papacy, chapters one and two of this book will meet the need."

Then Eno should go on the list of books to be read. I'll see what I can do. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 01:51, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I think this is a good source, and it has been recently updated. I think we can be justified in relying on it throughout the history section. Karanacs (talk) 16:43, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

    • double cite with Schreck for " The Church teaches that the fullness of the "means of salvation" exists only in the Catholic Church but acknowledges that the Holy Spirit can make use of Christian communities separated from itself to bring people to salvation. It teaches that anyone who is saved is saved indirectly through the Church if the person has invincible ignorance of the Catholic Church and its teachings (as a result of parentage or culture, for example), yet follows the morals God has dictated in his heart and would, therefore, join the Church if he understood its necessity. It teaches that Catholics are called by the Holy Spirit to work for unity among all Christians."
