Prelude to the modernist crisis: the firmin articles of alfred loisy

Alfred Firmin Loisy (1857-1940) was a French theologian, biblical scholar, and Roman Catholic priest. Loisy's articles that appeared in the Revue de clergefrancais from 1898 to 1900 (under the name 'A. Firmin') represent one of the earliest modernist attempts to develop a history of Christianity. This book provides new translations of the five theoretical articles from the Revue de clerge francais, which form a theoretical introduction to Loisy's thought, and tothe more historical concerns of his later writings. These five articles will be accompanied by a response by Loisy's contemporary (and frequent critic) Charles Maignen, as well as an introduction by the editor. INDICE: Introduction C.J.T.
