St. Thomas Aquinas never commented on the Song of Songs. The purpose of this book is to demonstrate, however, that he meditated on it and absorbed it, so that the words of the Song are for him a familiar repertoire and a theological source.
Unties some of the knots that face us when we reflect on the God of biblical Revelation. In each of the essays gathered here, Fr. Emmanuel Durand sympathetically articulates the tensions and apparent contradictions experienced by contemporary minds as they strive to understand the revealed truth of God.
Presents history of prominent Medieval and Renaissance Thomists' efforts to solve three distinct but interrelated problems arising from their reading both of Aquinas's own texts on analogy, and from John Duns Scotus's arguments against analogy and in favour of univocity in Metaphysics and Natural Theology.
Every discipline, including theology, requires a synthetic overview of its acquisitions and open questions, a kind of ""topography"" to guide the new student and refresh the gaze of specialists. In his Synthese dogmatique, Fr. Jean-Herve Nicolas, OP (1910-2001) presents just such a map of Thomistic theology.
Examines the development of early Christian reflection on the Trinity, arguing that essential contributions of Patristic theology are preserved and expanded in the thought of Thomas Aquinas.
Tells for the first time the story of how Thomas Aquinas conversed with his contemporaries about the dynamics of human nature's longing for God, and documents how he deliberately utilized Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, and Latin sources to develop a version of Aristotelian natural desire that was uniquely Augustinian.
Offers a systematic treatment of St. Thomas Aquinas's account of the metaphysical relations of unity-to-union and unity-to-participation in God as the key structuring elements to the nature of love and friendship.
Summarizes the historical background to the Salmanticenses, from the time of Anselm up through the early-modern period. The book presents and defends the Salmanticenses' argument for the primacy of Christ the redeemer, and then turns to two key post-conciliar figures, Karl Rahner and Hans Urs von Balthasar.
The topic of habitus is one of Thomas Aquinas's greatest contributions to moral theology, but it has been generally neglected in theological scholarship until now. Habits and Holiness is the first work in English to explore Aquinas's rich theology of habit in all of its grandeur and depth.
Provides a scholarly contribution to Thomistic studies, specifically to the study of Aquinas's biblical exegesis in relation to his philosophy and theology. Each of the thirteen chapters has a different focus, within the shared concentration of the book on Aquinas's Literal Exposition on Job.
Explores one of the most frequently misunderstood teachings of Thomas Aquinas - Eucharistic transubstantiation. The study interprets Aquinas's teaching as an exercise of "holy teaching" that shows theologically and philosophically the profound thesis that "transubstantiation" affirms nothing but the truth of Christ's words at the Last Supper.
Provides the historical context for understanding the development of sacramental causality as a theological topic in the scholastic period, emphasizing the unique features of Aquinas' response to this question. Following this, relevant texts from Aquinas' early and later work are examined, noting Aquinas' development and integration of the idea of sacramental causality in his later work.
Provides a much-anticipated introduction to Catholic doctrine on the Trinity. The extensive research combined with lucid prose provides readers a resource to better understand the foundations of Trinitarian reflection. It is addressed to all who wish to benefit from an initiation to Trinitarian doctrine.
