Worth
Noting
Grace
and Necessity: Reflections on Art and Love, by Rowan Williams,
is reviewed in the Church Times by John Habgood. 'Good works of
art carry an overload of meaning, and should appeal to levels of
the intellect which are not immediately obvious. Echoing like a refrain
throughout this book are some words of Jacques Maritain: "Things
are not only what they are . . . they give more than they have." The
same might be said of the book itself.' Bishop
Pierre Whalon also wrote a in-depth review for AO in his latest column.
In
Quires and Places Where They Sing, by Adrian Leak.
A feature article in the Church Times, celebrating 'the
quincentenary of the birth of Thomas Tallis, one of the
great composers of English church music. As part of that
celebration, a BBC Proms concert on Thursday 1 September
at 10 p.m. on Radio 3 will feature some of his best-known
works.'
Meanings
of Life, by Alex
Wright, is
reviewed this week in the Church Times by Simon Jones. 'This is, in some ways, an unconventional
sequel to Alex Wright's Why Bother with Theology? The publication of that book,
in which theology was told to "get a life", contributed, the author
says, to the ending of his job in religious publishing, and to a self-questioning
that led to this book.' |
