[4] Phronema is also the name of the official annual review of St Andrew's Greek Orthodox Theological College, Sydney, Australia.
It presents articles and book reviews from Orthodox and non-Orthodox on topics with central reference to theology, Church history and Orthodoxy.
[5] The term was used by John Henry Newman in an article published in 1859 under the title "On Consulting the Faithful in Matters of Doctrine".
He said that the consensus of the faithful is to be regarded as "a sort of instinct, or phronēma, deep in the bosom of the mystical body of Christ".
[6] The term was used by Ernst Haeckel in his book The Wonders of Life[7] where (p. 342) the phronema is the name given to a part of the cortex, as “the real organ of mind”.
