Eamon Duffy on John Henry Newman and the Limits of Dogma — Collegium Institute Annual Newman Lecture

Please enjoy this recording of Collegium Institute's annual Newman Lecture, “Newman and the Limits of Dogma: A Conversation with Eamon Duffy.”
The 2021 Annual Newman Lecture, taking place just after Newman’s birthday, featured Professor Eamon Duffy of Cambridge University, renowned author of The Stripping of the Altars and other monographs as well as, most recently, John Henry Newman: A Very Brief History.
In his Apologia (1864), John Henry Newman emphasized his life-long commitment to the centrality of dogma to authentic Christianity. A fierce opponent of heresy while an Anglican, in the 1860s and 1870s the Catholic Newman dedicated much of his energy and considerable public prestige to combatting what he perceived as the inflationary and excessive dogmatism which threatened the intellectual and spiritual integrity of the Church under Pope Pius IX. In this talk, Professor Duffy considers the fundamental consistencies underlying the apparent contradictions in Newman’s developing understanding of the relation between revealed truth and intellectual freedom.
