The Church

Present-day magisterial Roman Catholicism offers an interesting perspective on personhood. Recent interest in personhood has been fostered by Vatican II (1962-1965), especially the ‘Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World’ (Gaudium et spes) and the ‘Declaration on Religious Freedom’ (Dignitatis humanae). The anthropological thrust of Vatican II is particularly referred to the dignity of the human person, her mystery, and vocation. In all these aspects of personhood, the Church plays a fundamental role. In fact, the (Roman) Church is seen as safeguarding the dignity of the person , shedding light on the mystery of the person, and is the place where the person can fully accomplish his vocation. While the focus seems to be on the person, the Church is always in the background.

Epistemological Crises

John Thiel's development of the category of “dramatic development” in his stimulating and influential Senses of Tradition offers a valuable entry point into the current discussion of the continuity or discontinuity between Vatican II and traditional Roman Catholic thought. This article extends and modifies Thiel's arguments in light of criticisms by Kathryn Tanner and Alasdair MacIntyre's description of the different ways in which traditions make or fail to make progress. It tests this revised theory against an application to Dignitatis Humanae and its contested relation to traditional Roman Catholic thought.
