Lonergan on Analogy
Going beyond essentialism : Bernard J.F. Lonergan, an atypical neo-scholastic
(2012)
Abstract
Matthew C. Ogilvie
 shows how Lonergan makes regular use of analogy in
systematic theology, in the light of the teaching of the
first Vatican Council.
Differently to what is happening in recent theological currents, Lonergan places
value in the analogy having the enrichment of understanding in view, and not
as a free construction of conceptual schemes. In this way the difference and
disproportion between the analogical base of reference and the transcendent
reality of god is dealt with intact.
