Lonergan’s Challenge: Healing & Creating in History

As always enlightenment is a matter of the ancient precept, Know

thyself. But in the contemporary context it aims to be such self-

awareness, such self-understanding, such self-knowledge, as to grasp the

similarities and the differences of common sense, science, and history,

to grasp the foundations of these three in interiority which also

founds natural right and, beyond all knowledge of knowledge, to give

also knowledge of affectivity in its threefold manifestation of love in the family, in the community, and

faith in God. Again, as always, emancipation has its root in self-transcendence. But in the contemporary context it is such self-transcendence as includes an

intellectual, a moral, and an affective conversion.
