Abstract
The influence of Coleridge on Newman has often been cited, but it has also been disputed. Newman himself sometimes denied it or simply expressed his surprise at the ‘coincidences’. In this article I focus on different aspects of Newman’s thought where such influence is apparent: the idea of a ‘sacramental system’, the Church of England as a via media, the theory of development in dogma, and the self. Newman’s mixed feelings about Coleridge are also analysed and an explanation for these is provided.
期刊介绍:
Literature and Theology, a quarterly peer-review journal, provides a critical non-confessional forum for both textual analysis and theoretical speculation, encouraging explorations of how religion is embedded in culture. Contributions should address questions pertinent to both literary study and theology broadly understood, and be consistent with the Journal"s overall aim: to engage with and reshape traditional discourses within the studies of literature and religion, and their cognate fields - biblical criticism, literary criticism, philosophy, politics, culture studies, gender studies, artistic theory/practice, and contemporary critical theory/practice.
