Abstract

In this thesis I am attempting to evaluate the historical · writings of John Henry, Cardinal, Newman. Most of the material herein contained may also be found in Jos. J. Reilly's excellent book, "Newman as a Man of Letters", however, I have treated some few phrases of Newman's history which that author ignores. The topic of my thesis, "Newman as an Historian", though treated at greater length by Reilly, is of merely secondary importance in his volume, consequently there are certain points, small or elementary, which the scope of that work m4de it impossible for h1m to treat. These, then, are the points which I have added. The rest of the matter is original to me only in the sense that an occasional turn of. thought or point of view is my own; however the great mass of material is borrowed.
