Jordan Aumann – författare

The Summa Theologiae ranks among the greatest documents of the Christian Church, and is a landmark of medieval western thought. It provides the framework for Catholic studies in systematic theology and for a classical Christian philosophy, and is regularly consulted by scholars of all faiths and none, across a range of academic disciplines. This paperback reissue of the classic Latin/English edition first published by the English Dominicans in the 1960s and 1970s, in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, has been undertaken in response to regular requests from readers and librarians around the world for the entire series of 61 volumes to be made available again. The original text is unchanged, except for the correction of a small number of typographical errors.

Spiritual Theology is based firmly on the work of three classical masters - St Thomas Aquinas, St John of the Cross, and St Teresa of Avila.The first part of Prof Jordan Aumann's magisterial text is concerned with the theological principles of Christian holiness, while the second and major part derives from those principles' practical directives for the individual Christian's 'growth in holiness'.This book has already proved of great benefit to contemporary students and general readers seeking to inform and develop their own spiritual lives.
