Volume 29

Dans l'histoire du Concile Vatican II, le theologien belge (Louvain)
Gerard Philips (1899-1972) se montre un des acteurs principaux. En tant
que secretaire adjoint de la Commission doctrinale du Concile, il a joue
un grand role dans la redaction de plusieurs documents importants de
Vatican II (Lumen Gentium, Dei Verbum, Gaudium et Spes...). La
presente publication offre aux lecteurs une edition bilingue (texte
originel neerlandais avec traduction francaise) des notes personnelles de
Mgr Philips, avec dans les notes critiques un tas de precisions
historiques, de documents non publies, et fournie d'une index des
personnes offrant une notice biographique concernant chaque auteur. Cette
edition du Journal Philips, qui contient souvent des pages emouvantes,
donne ainsi un apercu unique de l'histoire conciliaire vu par un
'insider'...

Volume 34

Without a doubt, the late Edward Schillebeeckx (1914-2009) remains one of
the most important and inspiring theological voices of the twentieth
century. Apart from his influential books still widely read, the name of
Schillebeeckx is constantly linked to the renewal of church life and
theology that occurred during the Second Vatican Council. The present
critically annotated edition by Dr. Karim Schelkens - containing both the
original Dutch text and an English translation - now makes Schillebeeckx'
private notes, jotted down during the first two council periods, readily
available for a wider public, thereby offering its readers a unique
possibility to enter into the thought world and the activities of this
theological giant. The edition is prepared with the support of the Edward
Schillebeeckx Foundation, and holds a preface by Prof. Mathijs Lamberigts
as well as an introduction by Schillebeeckx' biographer, Prof. Erik
Borgman.
