Vincent McNabb, O.P.
1868–1943
A preacher of contemplative life, family economy, land, labor, and Catholic social responsibility.
In brief
Life & thought
Vincent McNabb joined rigorous Thomistic study to energetic preaching and a sustained concern for land, labor, household life, and the poor. His concrete proposals belong to the interwar British context, but the moral questions he raises about property, place, and economic dependence remain worth examining.
