Christianity and the new age
by Christopher Dawson
- 1 Have read
In this little book, Christopher Dawson (1889-1970) explains why liberal humanism failed in its mission to supplant
Christianity as the soul of Western culture, and why its demise threatens not only Europe but also the world with a new “dark age.” As in many of his other books, Dawson here discusses why a recovery of European cultural order requires a retrieval of its religious foundations-in particulara retrieval of the humanism that was inherited, but squandered, by liberalism.
