None Other Gods Rahner The midpoint of the twentieth

The midpoint of the twentieth century

A triumph of the philosophical act

Fontamara soars to the heights of fable

rather than the dawn of the Renaissance

but rather an intractable obstacle to a life of fulfillment

None Other Gods Rahner The midpoint of the twentiethBy Robert Hugh Benson None Other Gods tells of one Frank Guiseley, a young man who abruptly departs his Cambridge education to take to the roads of England. Eventually, the novelty of these newfound wandering ways wears off; yet Frank has discovered that life is now imbued with a new and mysterious sense of purpose and peacea sensibility he cannot help but feel is only possible by the unequivocal, fullhearted renouncing of the world and its riches.
