John Tracy Ellis and the Figure of the Catholic Intellectual
Conniff, Brian
Catholic Education: A Journal of Inquiry and Practice, v10 n1 p76-88 Sep 2006
Fifty years after John Tracy Ellis challenged the quality and character of Catholic intellectual life, much work remains to be done. This essay explores Ellis's original assertions and places them in an overarching historical context that involves Flannery O'Connor and Thomas Merton.
