Beskrivning
While belief in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is at the very core of the Christian faith, the significance of the Spirit in particular is sometimes overlooked in faith practice and theological reflection, resulting in what theologians call Geistvergessenheit. In this context, Lumen Gentium, one of the most important documents of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), is usually praised for its pneumatological renewal. The current volume, however, argues that this renewal is no more than modest. The Holy Spirit is still conceived of predominantly as an adjunct to Christ. To substantiate that claim, Jos Moons has developed a novel method of close reading on the basis of which he compares Lumen gentium’s conception of the Spirit to that of Mystici corporis (1943). He also analyses the redaction-historical development of the former and concludes with a plea to envisage the Spirit more boldly: as actively guiding the church, especially by means of the sensus fidelium, its charisms and the discernment of spirits.

"This volume makes a notable contribution to the ongoing study of the Second Vatican Council. It is essential reading for anyone interested in gaining a comprehensive understanding of contemporary (official) Catholic Pneumatology, not only in its conciliar past, but also where it might well be heading in a near, more synodal, future.", J.Stayne, in: Ephemerides Theologicae Lovaniensis, Volume 99, Issue 1 (2023). "With its careful articulation of methodological and theological issues, this book will be useful for both students at all levels of theological education, as well as seasoned academic scholars. They will welcome its finely nuanced approach to the pneumatology of Lumen Gentium and its ongoing agenda." - Ormond Rush, Australian Catholic University, in: Louvain Studies, Volume 45, Issue 2 (2022)."[I]t is meticulously researched, solidly argued and in the last chapter a forward-looking work. It is not only of interest to catholic theologians focusing on ecclesiology and pneumatology." - Jean-Daniel Plüss, European Pentecostal Charistmatic Research Association, Switzerland, in: Pneuma Volume 44, Issue 3-4 (2022).
