Can There Be Dissent In Catholic Universities?, William Rewak
Can There Be Dissent In Catholic Universities?, William Rewak
English
On Tuesday, September 15, Pope John Paul II addressed the American Bishops in Los Angeles and indicated, quite forcefully, that there can be no dissent in the Catholic Church.
He said , "It is sometimes claimed that dissent from the magiserium is totally compatible with being a 'good Catholic' and poses no obstacle to the reception of the Sacraments. This is a grave error . . . " The examples he used throughout his talk encompassed such issues as abortion, the ordination of women, sexual and conjugal morality, divorce and remarriage.
The mass media, of course, had their predictable field …

In Search Of Humanity, William Rewak
In Search Of Humanity, William Rewak
English
What is it that unifies our common enterprise here at Santa Clara? What makes it a common enterprise? We live in a pluralistic society and such a question is therefore hard to respond to with any assurance. Any attempt at unity is difficult: we've been struggling with it at least since Plato first tried to figure out how the many and varied aspects of reality proceeded from one source.
But I think it's a good question, and we ought always to be searching for the answer. There are, of course, various ways of answering it. We can talk about the …
Responses To Charles Kingsley’S Attack On Political Economy., John C. Hawley
Responses To Charles Kingsley’S Attack On Political Economy., John C. Hawley
English
In 1850, Charles Kingsley lightheartedly told a friend that "The 'Christian Socialist' sells about 1500, and is spreading; but not having been yet cursed by any periodical, I fear it is doing no good."(l) Writing under the pseudonym 'Parson Lot," this young enthusiast did not have much longer to wait for that token of "success." Just two years later, in his defensive Who Are the Friends of Order? Kingsley acknowledged that the Christian Socialists were now besieged on all sides, and had "to hear Edinburgh Reviewers complaining of them for wishing to return to feudalism and medieval bigotry while Quarterly …
Abortion: Three Comments, William Rewak
Abortion: Three Comments, William Rewak
English
One of the most debated issues in modern life, and one that speaks to our deepest understanding of who God is and how life proceeds from God, is the issue of abortion. Thus the appropriateness of the preceding articles-both of them excellent essays on the subject. There are, however, three comments I would like to make concerning the argumentation in the articles: one comment on Father Fagothey's article and two on Father Burtchaell's.

A Meditation In St. Ives, William Rewak
A Meditation In St. Ives, William Rewak
English
When the train chugs into St . Ives, on the north coast of Cornwall a few miles east of Land 's End you see first a crescent-shaped white beach , filled with vacationers from York and Durham and the chillier parts of the Scottish Highlands. Not your usual English scene: there are hibiscus and bougainvillea; "chemist shops" selling Coppertone; bikinis of both sexes lying in a baking sun. It's July in southwestern England.
Around the western tip of the crescent is yet another crescent, this one filled with fishing boats and outlined by a busy boardwalk. And out at the …

The Function Of Self-Consciousness In John Barth's Chimera, Marilyn Edelstein
The Function Of Self-Consciousness In John Barth's Chimera, Marilyn Edelstein
English
Much recent American fiction has become increasingly self-conscious, displaying an awareness of itself as fiction, as artifice that diminishes the role of a central human consciousness or self in the fiction. The fictional process is in the foreground of much contemporary fiction where the narrative human presence once was. Yet, both fictional process and human presence serve similar structural functions within the text, which suggests that the creation of a fiction resembles the creation of a human self, real or imaginary. The provisional reality of self-conscious fiction is like the provisional reality of the "post-modern" self, prone to self-questioning, constituted …

A China Diary, William Rewak
A China Diary, William Rewak
English
When I was first called and asked to be a member of the Catholic University Delegation to China to investigate educational exchange programs, I hesitated. I'm not a very good traveler on other people's terms: tours and delegations are pre-determined, they leave little elbow room, and I'm not the most seasoned adventurer in the world. Anything beyond pasta, enchiladas, and roast beef I am immediately suspicious of; and I had heard about the rigors of Chinese travel.
But I was goaded into it by my Jesuit brothers; and I also knew that if I passed up this chance to take …

Saints, Diamonds And Bears, William Rewak

A common complaint in academia goes something like this: "If the essential work of education is that which occurs between student and faculty member, between students themselves, or between a student and a book, then why are so much money and so much energy spent in the nonessentials: athletics, dormitories, development and alumni offices, day-care centers, social activities-indeed , all the 'support services' of a university? Wouldn't life on a campus be simpler and wouldn't our work be more effective if we were to concentrate our efforts on the essentials?"
All of us, whether we're administrators or faculty or board …
