Academic freedom and the telos of the Catholic university
[electronic resource] /Kenneth Garcia. - 1st ed. - New York, NY :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource (xiv, 216 p.)
Includes bibliographical references and index.
The Current State of Catholic Higher Education -- The Medieval Liberal Arts and the Journey of the Mind to God -- Berlin: The Prototype of the Modern University -- Academic Freedom and Religion in America -- The Pursuit of Intellectual and Spiritual Wholeness, 1920 b6 s1960 -- The Consequence of Caesar's Gold -- 'The Direction Towards Which Wonder Progresses' -- Implications for Faculty Development and the Curriculum.
This book presents a theologically-grounded understanding of academic freedom that builds on, completes, and transforms the prevailing secular understanding. Academic freedom in the secular university, while rightly protecting scholars from external interference by ecclesiastical and political authorities, is constricting in practice because it tends to prohibit most scholars from exploring the relation of the finite world to the infinite, or God. In the Catholic university, true academic freedom means both the freedom of the scholar to pursue studies unencumbered by external interference, and freedom to pursue knowledge beyond the boundaries of specific academic disciplines toward an infinite horizon.
