Ernesto Buoniauti (1881-1946) was the most notable priest and scholar in the movement known to church historians as Modernism, that swept over the Roman Catholic Church in the first 2 decades of the 20th century. Almost nothing of his writing has been available in English and this volume presents translations from his works which represent the essence of his thinking on the grand theme of Christian faith, its relation to Mediterranean culture, and its availability to modern man as a guide to his thinking and living.
