The current issue of Communio focuses on education. From the introduction to the issue: “Many of its essays are the maturation of insights first presented at a conference at the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family at The Catholic University of America during the fall of 2024, with the theme, ‘The Rediscovery of Reality: Education and the Catholic Imagination.’ Prominent among the many questions considered by our authors are the importance of the ‘transcendent horizon’ within which genuine education must take place, the relationship between the teacher and the student, the self-disclosure of being to the intellect through tangible and incarnate realities, and the maturation toward truth and freedom that education facilitates.”
Articles in the Summer 2015 issue include the following, plus many more: “Quaerere Deum: What Is Education and Why Is It Catholic?,” by Michael Hanby; “Educating the Human Person: A Theological Presupposition,” by Antonio López; “Of Cicadas and Mayflies: Literary Education,” by James Matthew Wilson; and “What Kind of Hope Allows Us to Face Cultural Devastation? A Dialogue with Jonathan Lear” by José Noriega.
