Newman's nine discourses on university education, delivered in Dublin in 1852 for the new Catholic University of Ireland: theology as a branch of knowledge, knowledge as its own end, liberal education and the duties of the Church toward knowledge. Ten occasional essays on university subjects (1858) follow: Christianity and letters, literature, elementary studies, physical science, university preaching, and discipline of mind.
