Purpose----Texts----Requirements---- Syllabus---Next Paper Assignment

• Karl Adam, The Spirit of Catholicism (Angelico Press) (ISBN: 978-1887593410) (1924)
• Henri de Lubac, Catholicism (Ignatius Press) (ISBN:  978-0898702033) (1938)
• Joseph Pieper, Happiness and Contemplation (St. Augustine's Press) (ISBN: 978-1890318314) (1958)
• Jean Danielou, God and the Ways of Knowing (Ignatius Press) (ISBN: 978-0898709391) (1956)
• Louis Bouyer, Christian Humanism (out of print: .pdf provided by instructors) (1958)
• Louis Bouyer, Christian Initiation (out of print: .pdf provided by instructors) (1960)
• Romano Guardini, The Lord (Gateway Editions) (ISBN: 978-0895267146) (1954)

• Four Short papers (60% of course grade).  Each student will be required to write four 5-page papers on different sections of Guardini's The Lord.  The first paper, on themes related to Advent and Christmas (pp. 3-29), will be due on 2/2.  The second paper, on themes related to Ordinary Time (pp. 89-174), will be due on 3/4.  The third paper, on themes related to Lent (pp. 405-468), will be due on 3/30. The fourth paper, on themes related to Easter (pp. 471-532), will be due on 4/22.  On the days when a paper is due, the classroom discussion will focus on the parts of Guardini's book that you have just written on.


• Class Participation (40% of course grade).  This consists of two separate things:  
  
  (a) You must submit to us by email, before 9:00AM on each class day, a question/comment based on the readings assigned for that day.  (On days when papers are due about Guardini's The Lord, your paper counts as your question/comment.) We expect the questions/comments to be well thought out and well articulated, though fairly short. They will serve as a partial guide for our class comments on the day in question.  (We pay close attention to the quality of these questions in determining the participation component of the grade.)
  
  (b) Active and intelligent participation in seminar discussions.  In general, student initiative and signs of self-motivation will be rewarded in this course.
