"Nothing Superfluous" is a guide to the Rite of St. Gregory, the "Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite." In clear language, Fr. Jackson reveals the rich theologian meaning behind the art, architecture, words, and gestures of the Rite of St. Gregory. His work is a simple guide for those who have been moved by the beauty of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and who wish to move from appreciation to apprehension - from wonder, to knowledge. Of course, in the face of divine realities, knowledge itself leads back t wonder, and from wonder to love. And the instruction of "Nothing Superfluous" will help Catholics to appreciate ever more deeply the profound beauty expressed in the Mass. --Page 4 of cover.

Originally published in 1993. This book explores the process by which individuals reconstruct the meaning and significance of past experience. Drawing on the lives of such notable figures as St Augustine, Helen Keller and Philip Roth as well as on the combined insights of psychology, philosophy and literary theory, the book sheds light on the intricacies and dilemmas of self-interpretation in particular and interpretive psychological enquiry more generally. The author draws upon selected, mainly autobiographical, literary texts in order to examine concretely the process of rewriting the self. Among the issues addressed are the relationship of rewriting the self to the concept of development, the place of language in the construction of selfhood, the difference between living and telling about it, the problem of facts in life history narrative, the significance of the unconscious in interpreting the personal past, and the freedom of the narrative imagination.
