Certain utterances in some of his published speeches unfortunately betray the influence of a reprehensible school of thought and too great intimacy with the literature of its representative minds. www.newadvent.org /cathen/10198a.htm   (347 words)

Mercier Summary Mercier gave expression to his thought in a series of textbooks (his Course in Philosophy) that dealt with logic, psychology, metaphysics, and the criteria for truth and certitude (1892–1899). As a pastorally concerned leader of his diocese, Mercier was deeply involved in the spiritual life and development of both his clergy and the laity; indeed, he sought greater cooperation between both groups as well as advances in social justice. Though Mercier never became a strong political figure in Belgium—his attachment to French culture hindered his understanding of the Flemish and their problems—he did become a figurehead for the Belgian people during the German occupation of World War I (1914–1918), strengthening their morale through sermons and pastoral letters. www.bookrags.com /Mercier   (941 words)
