Description
Ivan Illich: An Intellectual Journey by David Cayley explores the life and work of Ivan Illich, a revolutionary figure in the Roman Catholic Church and cultural critic. Spanning over 18 years since his death, this book presents Illich's thought in its own time, retrieving its relevance for ours. Cayley examines Illich's advocacy for a de-clericalized church, his opposition to American missionary programs, and his institutional critiques of the 1970s. He also delves into Illich's theory of modernity as an extension of church history, which he developed over the last twenty years of his life. This book is not a conventional biography but rather a continuation of conversation with Illich's ideas, engaging readers interested in theology, philosophy, history, and the Catholic Church.
