Résumé

This book offers an in-depth exploration of Bernard Lonergan's philosophy, theology, and method, presenting his work as a transformative framework for understanding human consciousness, self-transcendence, and the pursuit of authenticity. Lonergan's thought bridges classical and modern traditions, integrating insights from thinkers like Aquinas, Kant, and Heidegger into a comprehensive vision that addresses the intellectual, moral, and spiritual dimensions of human existence.
Through detailed analysis of Lonergan's seminal works, Insight: A Study of Human Understanding and Method in Theology, the book examines his foundational concepts, including the operations of consciousness, the transcendental precepts, and the dynamic dialectic of progress, decline, and redemption. Lonergan's critical realism and emphasis on intellectual, moral, and religious conversion are discussed as central to his approach to epistemology, ethics, and theology.
The text situates Lonergan within the broader philosophical tradition, engaging with postmodern critiques, liberation theology, and contemporary challenges such as cultural pluralism, globalization, and systemic injustice. It highlights the applicability of Lonergan's ideas to disciplines as diverse as economics, education, and ecological ethics, demonstrating how his work offers a path toward a new humanism grounded in the integration of knowledge, values, and action.
Ultimately, this book argues that Lonergan's philosophy is not a static system but a living tradition, one that invites ongoing dialogue, critical engagement, and transformative practice. It challenges readers to embrace the dynamics of self-transcendence, to align their lives with the demands of truth, goodness, and love, and to contribute to the flourishing of individuals, communities, and the world.
Through this exploration, the book affirms Lonergan's enduring relevance for addressing the complexities of modern existence and the shared human search for meaning.
