126 pages , 18 cm. The many-sidedness of Teilhard's appeal –to the student of man's origins, to the theologian, the philosopher, the sociologist –is such that we may lose sight of his central concern. All his gifts, his learning, his humanity, his genius for friendship, his religious formation, were deployed to one end and for one purpose –the understanding and development of man. Seeing mas as primarily, though not exclusively, a spiritual being, he directed his thinking to making men more fully aware of their spiritual teaching is the best clue to an understanding of this richly versatile priest-scientist. In this book Father Corbishley analyses what 'spirituality' meant to Theilhard and his understanding of it can correct many a misapprehension about its real significance. Tracing the personal spiritual development that was rooted inevitably in the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius Loyola, this study shows how Teilhard built on Loyola, this study shows how Teilhard built on traditional foundations to present to his contemporaries what can justly be described as a Faith for the Twentieth Century.
