PHI 8350 Lonergan's Insight
Bernard Lonergan's Insight is a major work which some think is the most important contribution to epistemology in the twentieth century. Insight explores human knowing as a complexus of essentially different acts by which we understand, judge and affirm our very acts of understanding, judging and affirming. The seminar will include parallel readings from Lonergan's Halifax Lectures, Verbum articles and background materials from Newman's Grammar of Assent.
