"Archival Material: Early Papers on History finds its rightful place in the series, since it expands, explains, and is a commentary upon a central developing preoccupation throughout Lonergan's oeuvre: 'progress, decline, and redemption.'"
Mark D. Morelli
"These early essays, in addition to exhibiting the brilliance of the young Lonergan, reveal much about the concerns and problems which motivated Lonergan's lifelong effort to develop a method for theology. As Hegel's early theological writings anticipated his entire mature system, so these early papers illuminate Lonergan's life project in a way that none of his other early writings do."
Jim Kanaris
"This collection of papers provides a snapshot of Lonergan's early development. As such, it represents part of what informs the more widely known thinking of Insight and Method in Theology. Every student of Lonergan wants to know the whole story and would be grateful to have this volume at the ready."
