Beskrivning

The book elucidates Henry of Ghent's philosophical and theological system with special reference to his trinitarian writings. It demonstrates the fundamental role of the Trinity in Henry's philosophy and theology. It also shows how Henry (d. 1293), the most influential theologian of his day at Paris, developed the Augustinian tradition in seminal ways in response to the Aristotelian tradition, especially Thomas Aquinas (d. 1274).

With his detailed and lucid study, Flores succeeds not only in making this vast arena of Henry's thinking available to other scholars but also in showing by dint of persistent probing just how comprehensive, complicated, and, in the end, fascinating was all that Henry had to say about Trinity.Speculum, 2010 volume 85/3, Steven P.
