An essay on the development of Christian Doctrine by John Henry Cardinal Newman
In around 2009 I published some chapter summaries of 'Development of Christian Doctrine' by Newman. These are not copies of the text - which is already available online but my summary notes with a few quotes and published them on Scribd. To be honest I had forgotten about them until yesterday when I received an email saying that Ch 3 summary had been removed due to a copyright violation. I find this very difficult to understand, the book had its second edition in 1878 - so there shouldn't be any copyright issues and it is not even the original text - it is my text. So ch3 was removed but I am going to publish ch1 and ch2 here, The Development of Christian Doctrine is from a very interesting period in the life of Newman. It was first published in 1845 and helped to reassure him that he could convert to Roman Catholicism. Chapter 1 Chapter 2 I don't know if these are useful or not but I might continue.
