Publisher's Description

In brief portraits, Pope Benedict XVI offers engaging, perceptive, and edifying sketches of some of the great thinkers and writers of Christianity. Pope Benedict discusses notable theologians from East and West but also many figures whose primary witness was as ascetics, poets, mystics, and missionaries. His pieces are not only illuminating historical sketches but also often surprisingly personal reflective meditations on the perennial changes of theology, spirituality, devotion, and corporate religious lifein short, of thinking about and wrestling daily with the mysteries that envelop all our lives and struggles.

Always with an eye to their deepest religious convictions and struggles, the Holy Father presents these great thinkers' importance for the church and for Christian life today.

Great Christian Thinkers is an openminded look at the tradition and is written for Catholics and Protestants alike.

Endorsements

"The addresses are exemplary of clear, edifying instruction in Catholic faithfulness and thinking through the ages and their relevance for the lives of the faithful today. A much-needed guide that should be read by all of those charged with teaching the faith to the next generation,"
