I am particularly grateful to ThomasO’Mearaforloaningmemanyof hispersonalCongarfilesandbooks.Iwouldalsoliketoexpressmygratitude to the late Dolores Zohrab Liebmann and to the Liebmann Trustees for the award of the Dolores Zohrab Liebmann fellowship which supported thefinal years of my graduate study. Thanks are due as well to the Sisters of theHoly Cross at the Church of Loretto in South Bend for their liturgical hospitality. Congar professed that he learned half of his theology through liturgy, and I have no doubt that my appreciation for Congar’s work was enhanced by the fact that I was able to worship as a graduate student in a place where liturgy wascelebratedwithsuchcommitment,conviction,beauty,andgrace,inacom- munityofwomendedicatedtoputtingtheGospelintopracticeintheworld. IamdeeplygratefulaswelltomyhusbandJohnforhisloveandsupport, and to my most formative teachers, my parents John and Rose Marie. They helpedkeeparoofoverourheadsasJohnandIcompletedourgraduatestudies together, and my motherRose Mariewas such a superb proofreaderthatone of the faculty on my dissertation board remarked on the quality of her work. Shealsomadetimetoproofreadthemanuscriptforthisbookwithmyfather onstand-byaseditorialconsultant. In the course of the preparation of the dissertation, portions of several chapters were presented at the systematic theology section of the American Academy of Religion and the contemporary theologies section of the College TheologySociety.Iwouldliketothankthefollowingpersonsforhelpfulcom- ments made on these occasions: Bernard Cooke, Dennis Doyle, Bradford Hinze, and Miroslav Volf. Condensed portions of the dissertation were pub- lished in an article in Theological Studies, and I am grateful to MichaelFahey, S.J.,forhisassistancewiththatarticleandforpermissiontousethismaterial inbookform.Iwouldalsoliketothankallmynewcolleaguesinthetheology departmentat Xavier Universityfortheirexceptionalcollegialityandsupport. IthankaswellRamiroPelliteroforsharinghisbibliographyofrecentEuropean secondary literature on Congar. This arrived too late to be incorporated into my own bibliography, but if others doing Congar research are interested in this resource, Professor Pellitero is graciously willing to share his work.

Finally, I am grateful to Kim Connor of the University of San Francisco, editor of the American Academy of Religion Academy Series; Cynthia Read, Executive Editor at Oxford; production editors Stacey Hamilton and Rebecca Johns-Danes;copyeditorJerilynFamighetti;andtwoanonymousreviewersfor all their time and contributions.
