Father Aidan Nichols on GKC
Father Aidan Nichols’s book G.K.Chesterton, Theologian, has now at last been published by Darton Longman and Todd. Those who heard Fr Aidan at our July conference talking on GKC as a Doctor of the Church will have had a foretaste of what will undoubtedly be an important milestone in the endless struggle to get Chesterton taken seriously as a major figure in the history of Christian thought.
The following is DLT’s sales pitch.
Dominican Theology celebrates Chesterton
Fr Aidan Nichols, the well-known Dominican theologians latest book, looks at theology from a new perspective. Nichols, a lecturer at the University of Cambridge, explains how GK Chesterton, despite being a journalist and comic writer, was also a theologian, not just in his overtly religious works, but in all that he wrote. As well as providing an introduction to the life of this fascinating author, the book ends up being a kind of systematic theology for the nervous a chance to learn about theology without having to really study theology.
