Abstract

This presentation is provided two main topics: first, a review of the history of the role of Doctors of the C hurch and how the discernment process contributed to the development of the Church’s understanding of this title, using the recent evaluation
(1997, 2012) and the conferral of the doctorate; secondly, a careful and systematic evaluation of Newman’s fulfillment of the Congregation for the Doctrine ofthe Faith’s Norms and Criteria was offered based upon the commentaries of Pope John Paul II
and his successor Benedict XVI regarding Newman’s eminent doctrine. The final part of the article shows the possibility of Newman’s inclusion in the exclusive college of the Doctores Ecclesiae.
