Lonergan's essay, "Healing and Creating in History,"lends itself well to the overall theme of Legacy as we reflect on what we have inherited from the past, and on the historic Legacy that we leave behind. Every generation is caught up in the reality of legacy, both as beneficiaries and as benefactors, by contributing their experience and their wisdom. What legacy will theologians bequeath? How can we draw from the knowledge, the experience, the mistakes, and the wisdom of the past? How may we form another legacy, on which to build a future filled with possibilities? What place does the concept of legacy hold in pondering Lonergan's own contribution to the present and the future?

 

These are the kinds of questions we hope to see addressed in papers proposed on the topic of Bernard Lonergan and the theme of Legacy. We also encourage any Lonergan scholar to propose a paper topic on anything in the realm of Lonergan studies.
