Titre : An Introduction to Medieval Theology. Second Edition Type de document : LIVRE Auteurs : VAN NIEUWENHOVE, Rick, Auteur Mention d'édition : 2 Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2022 Importance : 383 p ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-108-83955-6 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : This classic book, now in a second, expanded edition, is an invitation to think along with major theologians and spiritual authors, men and women from the time of St Augustine to the end of the fourteenth century, who profoundly challenge our (post-)modern assumptions. Medieval theology was radically theocentric, Trinitarian, Scriptural, and sacramental, yet it also operated with a rich notion of human understanding. In a post-modern setting, when modern views on 'autonomous reason' are increasingly questioned, it is fruitful to re-engage with pre-modern thinkers who did not share our modern and post-modern presuppositions. Their different perspective does not antiquate their thought; on the contrary, it makes them profoundly challenging and enriching for theology today. This survey introduces readers to key theologians of the period and explores themes of the relationship between faith and reason; the mystery of the Trinity; soteriology; Christian love; and the transcendent thrust of medieval thought.

Titre : Thomas Aquinas and contemplation Type de document : LIVRE Auteurs : VAN NIEUWENHOVE, Rick, Auteur Editeur : Oxford : Oxford University Press Année de publication : 2021 Importance : 1 vol. (viii-220 p.) Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 0-19-289529-X Note générale : Bibliogr. p. [207]-213. Notes bibliogr. Index Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 248.34 Résumé : "Contemplation, according to Thomas Aquinas, is the central goal of our life. This study considers the epistemological and metaphysical foundations of the contemplative act; the nature of the active and contemplative lives in light of Aquinas's Dominican calling; the role of faith, charity, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit in contemplation; and contemplation and the beatific vision. Rik Van Nieuwenhove argues that Aquinas espouses a profoundly intellective notion of contemplation in the strictly speculative sense, which culminates in a non-discursive moment of insight (intuitus simplex). In marked contrast to his contemporaries Aquinas therefore rejects a sapiential or affective brand of theology. He also employs a broader notion of contemplation, which can be enjoyed by all Christians, in which the gifts of the Holy Spirit are of central importance. Thomas Aquinas and Contemplation will appeal to readers interested in this key aspect of Aquinas's thought. Van Nieuwenhove provides a lucid account of central aspects of Aquinas's metaphysics, epistemology, theology, and spirituality. He also offers new insights into the nature of the theological discipline as Aquinas sees it, and how theology relates to philosophy" Permalink : https://rimont.bibliossimo.info/pmb/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=774 Réservation
