The British Teilhard Network

The British Teilhard Network promotes the work and vision of the priest-scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin – a vision of love, of fire, of convergence, of a world in evolution energised by spirit, a vision of dynamism and direction – of a universe in movement towards its ultimate consummation or completion in a ‘universal cosmic centre’ or ‘centre of centres’.

THIS MONTH’S RECOMMENDED BOOK
Letters to Léontine Zanta from Teilhard de Chardin – 1923-1939 – Collins 1969
Zanta (1872 – 1942) was “brilliant, delightful, and in her day famous. She was the first French woman to become a doctor of philosophy, an inspired teacher and the centre of a lively group of writers and thinkers.” In the late 1920s she received the Legion of Honour. She met Teilhard through his cousin Marguerite and they corresponded. These letters were mainly written by him when he was in China, and he discusses his ideas and problems with the Jesuit order.
