Title: Looking Toward the Council
Description: Consists primarily of translations from German, the book is a collection of essays. Looking toward the Council, made up of sixteen fairly short pieces, reproduces the special (Spring, 1962) issue of Cross Currents and will in that form be already familiar to many. Dialogue for Reunion contains three longer papers given in a seminar on ecumenism at Duquesne University to Catholic and Protestant students (the course and the whole series of lectures are described in the preface of the editor, professor of history and theology at Duquesne). Bishop John J. Wright, in "The Impact of the Ecumenical Movement," is chiefly concerned with the obstacles to union, especially those clearly or latently present in nationalism. H. A. Reinhold, in "Liturgy and Ecumenism," argues for the irreplaceable value of a truly "popular" liturgy in presenting the true face of the Church to those outside. George Tavard presents, in "The Holy Tradition," a synthesis of the ideas he has expressed in a number of books and articles, on the relation between Scripture and tradition.
