Conflict & Concord
Bronwen Neil, Sister Susan SLG, Sister Rosemary SLG, Sister Clare-Louise SLG, Bishop Humphrey Southern
Anger, revenge, evildoing, bitterness, aggression and recrimination seem to be everywhere in the world. Through writers and thinkers ranging from the early Fathers of the Church to the modern day, this book examines how we can understand and govern ourselves and our passions; how we can hold back from giving in to the temptations of anger and a desire for revenge, and how we can understand and forgive those passions in others and in ourselves.
