Abstract:
Vatican II as an "event" / Josph A. Komonchak -- Vatican II: Did anything happen? / John W. O'Malley -- Against forgetting: memory, history, Vatican II / Stephen Schloesser -- "The times they are a-changin'": a response to O'Malley and Schloesser / Neil
J. Ormerod.

"For 40 years a battle has been waged over Vatican II between conservatives and liberals, betwee those who want to go "back to the sources" and those who champion "the spirit of the council." Pope Benedict XVI is one of those who started out a liberal only to end up in the conservative camp. [This] book is clearly on the side of those who think that something unprecedented happened, that a genie was let out of the bottle that will never be put back. The book is a collection of articles that are without qualification some of the best analyses of the council ever written." Back cover.
