Nouwen lot seg inspirere av blant andre Anton Boisen, Thomas Merton, Rembrandt, Vincent van Gogh og Jean Vanier.

Liv og virke

Bakgrunn

Henri Nouwens far var sakføreren Laurent Nouwen, moren het Maria Ramselaar. Henry tok eksamen artium i Haag i 1950 og begynte i 1951 studier i teologi og filosofi ved presteseminaret i Rijsenburg ved Utrecht.

1950-1980

Prestevielsen fant sted i 1957.

Deretter tjente han i erkebispedømmet Utrecht samtidig som han studerte psykologi ved det katolske universitet i Nijmegen (Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen). Etter eksamen i 1964 arbeidet han i fire år i USA, først som foreleser i religion og psykiatri ved Menninger Clinic i Topeka i Kansas, deretter som gjesteprofessor ved det psykologiske fakultet ved University of Notre Dame.

I 1968 flyttet han tilbake til Nederland for å undervise ved det katolske teologiske institutt i Utrecht. Han tok også en teologisk eksamen ved Nijmegens universitet.

Etter tre år i Nederland vendte han tilbake til USA for å undervise i pastoralteologi ved Yale Divinity School, noe han gjorde til 1981. I løpet av disse år foreleste han også ved Ecumenical Institute i Collegeville i Minnesota og ved Pontifical North American College i Roma. I 1974 og 1978 tilbragte han flere måneder i Abbey of the Gesesee, et cisterciensk kloster i Piffard i New York.

1980 og fremover

I 1981 og 1982 besøkte han Latinamerika og viet meget av sin tid til de fattigste. 1983-1985 underviste han ved Harvard Divinity School. Deretter reiste han til Frankrike og bodde i ni måneder i et L'Arche-fellesskap, et kristent lokalsamfunn grunnlagt av Jean Vanier der psykisk utviklingshemmede og assister lever sammen i evangeliets ånd.
