Beskrivning

Olivier-Thomas Venard's Thomas d’Aquin poète théologien trilogy, an in depth analysis of the scripture of St. Thomas Aquinas, is translated for a new audience in this streamlined anthology. Featuring selections from all three books in the trilogy, chosen in accordance with Venard's direction and discernment, it introduces not only arguments pertinent to the theme of this volume, but an invitation to explore the full breadth of Venard's work.Concentrating on the subjects of scripture, theology and literature, language as a theological question and the word of God, Murphy and Oakes capture the scope and energy of Venard's trilogy while collating many of its key passages. Ranging from the themes of a poetic gospel and Christology to the Thomist theories of semiology and the metaphysics of the Word, this volume sets scholars on the path to a deeper understanding of Aquinas's systematic theology.

Recensioner i media

A Poetic Christ is a demanding book, but its demands are worth the effort … It is a book that not only commends,but also embodies, Venard’s calls for theology to be thought anew as ‘a reasoned history of thepoetics of faith practiced by a concrete community’.
