Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholic moral theology faces a radical challenge in this age of moral upheaval. No longer must it simply respond to specific questions about particular matter, nor elaborate some method for the formulation of norms. The challenge now is instead no less than comprehending the mystery of human action in its proper dynamism. Livio Melina here guides the reader on a path that seeks to recover the integrality of moral experience and its place in Christian existence. This path aims at rediscovering in moral action an epiphany of love and attempts to help us recognize a profound synergy between human and divine action.

Download or read book The Nuptial Mystery written by Angelo Scola and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2005-05-12 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translated by Michelle K. Borras The idea of love pervades our society, yet it is nearly impossible to answer the question What is love? especially as we witness the divorce of love from sexuality and of sexuality from procreation. Aware that many people today are skeptical about marriage, Angelo Cardinal Scola nevertheless suggests that only in the category of nuptial mystery do we find a way to adequately describe the phenomenon of love. A bright new leader in the Catholic Church, Cardinal Scola argues that the male-female relationship lies near the heart of what it means to bear the image of God. Scola's book explores the essential sexual differences that both separate and unite men and women, and it shows how men and women can realize their purpose in marriage or celibacy. Conversant with papal teaching and Catholic writers from Aquinas to von Balthasar, Cardinal Scola writes with a deep regard for marriage and the family. His Nuptial Mystery will leave readers with a thoroughly Christian appreciation for incarnate love.

Book Sharing in Christ s Virtues

Download or read book Sharing in Christ s Virtues written by Livio Melina and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The encyclical Veritatis splendor (The Splendor of Truth) represents the first document of the magisterium devoted to the foundations of the Catholic moral life. Though it was intended to confront a genuine crisis of moral disintegration and to offer positive directions for carrying out the work of renewing moral theology, it was fiercely criticized by theologians who regarded it as a simplistic and "repressive" document. Now, several years after the publication of the encyclical, Livio Melina offers an original contribution not only to the study of Veritatis splendor and the controversy surrounding it, but also to the field of moral theology as a whole. In Sharing in Christ's Virtues, Melina proposes a blueprint for organizing moral theology, one that is in harmony with the directions given in Veritatis splendor and one that likewise respects the requirements of both the "theological" and the "scientific" character of the discipline. He describes it as a "Christocentricism of the virtues," which understands the moral life of Christians as a participation in the virtues of Christ by means of the grace of one's ecclesial incorporation in Christ. Melina argues that the renewal of moral theology should result in, first, a search for a more integral and dynamic understanding of human action, and second, a theological "re-dimensioning" of morality to better comprehend the synergy between human action and God's action. The contents of the book are: Part One: Toward a Christocentrism of the Virtues: Lines of Renewal 1. Between Crisis and Renewal: The Cultural and Theological Context of Morality Today 2. An Ethics of the Good Life and of Virtue 3. An Ethics Founded on the Truth About the Good of the Person 4. A Morality of Faith: The Salvific Relevance of Moral Action 5. A Christocentric Ethics of the Virtues Part Two: Ecclesial Sense and Moral Life: Perspectives and Developments 6. Ecclesial Dimensions of Moral Theology 7. The Call to Holiness in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: The Morality and Spirituality of "Life in Christ" 8. Moral Conscience and Communio: Toward a Response to the Challenge of Ethical Pluralism Livio Melina is professor of moral theology at the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family at the Lateran University in Rome. In addition to numerous articles, he has written and coauthored several books, including La conoscenza morale. Linee di riflessione sul Commento di san Tommaso all'Etica Nicomachea; Morale: tra crisi e rinnovamento; Corso di bioetica. Il Vangelo della vita; Amor conjugal y vocacion a la santidad; Domanda sul bene e domanda su Dio; and Quale dimora per l'agire? Dimensioni ecclesiologiche della morale. "Melina's thought-provoking and powerful presentation of key themes in moral theology will be welcomed by English readers.... One comes away with an understanding and appreciation of the basis of Christian morality for the twenty-first century. The excellent bibliography lists authors from Aristotle to John Paul II, many not well known in the English literature on moral theology. . . . Melina's work is timely. ..."--Catholic Library World

Book The Unchanging God of Love

Download or read book The Unchanging God of Love written by Michael J. Dodds and published by Editions Universitaires. This book was released on 1986 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Church's traditional teaching on divine immutability is frequently criticized today by theologians belonging to a wide variety of nationalities and confessions. Such theologians are frequently united in singling out St. Thomas Aquinas as the best representative of the tradition that they are criticizing. Unfortunately, however, their criticism often involves a misrepresentation of St. Thomas' actual teaching on divine immutability. This book provides a clear, accurate, and detailed account of St. Thomas' teaching, presented in a way that allows St. Thomas to speak to the problems and issues that are raised in contemporary theology regarding divine immutability.

Book Dio e la legge naturale  Una rilettura di Tommaso d Aquino

Download or read book Dio e la legge naturale Una rilettura di Tommaso d Aquino written by Fulvio Di Blasi and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Se c'è un Dio e noi siamo le sue creature, ovviamente queste verità devono influenzare la nostra comprensione di ciò che dobbiamo e non dobbiamo fare. Qualsiasi teoria adeguata dei giudizi morali fondamentali dovrebbe riconoscere Dio come l'autore della legge morale. Fulvio di Blasi ha scritto un libro che mostra il carattere inevitabilmente teistico di qualsiasi resoconto adeguato della legge naturale. Lo leggerete con profitto. "Di Blasi dimostra l'inintelligibilità di qualsiasi etica che non abbia una dipendenza esplicita da Dio come sua fonte ultima o che non riesca ad ancorare la nostra conoscenza morale nella natura umana" Joseph W. Koterski, Fordham University, Theological Studies "[L'analisi di Di Blasi è] Diretta ed immediata: perché appare sempre più difficile, per la nostra mentalità, riuscire a pensare fino in fondo, senza filtri storici e concettuali, l'idea, semplice e radicale, che la legge naturale non sia altro che l'incontro dell'uomo con Dio. La legge naturale è il modo in cui ci scopriamo parte del progetto della creazione." Salvatore Amato, Università di Catania, Rivista Internazionale di Filosofia del Diritto "Dio e la legge naturale di Fulvio Di Blasi è un'indagine penetrante sul fondamento teologico del diritto naturale tomista... The argument of the book... is well worth the effort for any serious student of Thomistic natural law." John Goyette, Thomas Aquinas College, The Thomist "I "nuovi" studiosi di Tommaso sono spesso brillanti... Di Blasi fa senz'altro parte di questa nuova generazione... Il bel libro di Di Blasi, mentre porta in Italia l'eco della rinascenza anglosassone degli studi tomistici, invita a una riflessione senza compromessi, e a suo modo spregiudicata, sul pensiero di un autore che non può più essere appiattito su alcuna manualistica vulgata, sia per il dibattito acceso che è in corso sulla sua opera, sia per le implicazioni normative che gli esiti di questa stessa rinascenza possono comportare. Anche chi non condivide, e anzi osteggi, tali esiti, finisce spesso per sentire il fascino della sintesi tomistica e del dibattito specialistico che continua a suscitare." Gianfrancesco Zanetti, Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Rivista Filosofia Politica "Di Blasi premette alla propria interpretazione della spiegazione della legge naturale di Tommaso d'Aquino una critica estesa dell'interpretazione neoclassica... La critica che ne risulta è illuminante e persuasiva... Gli editori [inglesi] vanno ringraziati per aver introdotto l'opera di un percettivo e originale pensatore a un pubblico di lingua inglese" Jean Porter, University of Notre Dame, The Journal of Religion "Dio e la legge naturale è l'opera impressionante di un giovane studioso, che naviga tra le correnti vorticose del moderno dibattito sul significato della legge naturale." Matthew J. Peterson, The Claremont Institute "[Di Blasi] ritiene, per quanto ciò sia delicato sul piano filosofico, che l'ordine della natura debba essere riconosciuto come voluto da Dio. Quest'ultima affermazione richiama una dimensione che la filosofia guarda già con sospetto, giudicandola troppo teologica. Con efficacia l'Autore la fa emergere, quasi in sovrimpressione, da una semplice fenomenologia dell'esperienza morale comune [...] al di là della lettura trascendentale dei neoclassici e di quella metodologicamente atea di alcuni interpreti contemporanei, Di Blasi afferma, con Tommaso, che se l'etica può essere indipendente dal problema di Dio non può esserlo però dalla sua realtà." Luciano Sesta, Filosofia e Teologia

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vi è una legge vera, ragione retta conforme alla natura, presente in tutti, invariabile, eterna, tale da richiamare con i suoi comandi al dovere, e da distogliere con i suoi divieti dall'agire male... A questa legge non è possibile si tolga valore né è lecito che in qualcosa si deroghi, né essa può essere abrogata; da questa legge non possiamo essere sciolti ad opera del senato o del popolo... Essa non è diversa a Roma o ad Atene, non è diversa ora o in futuro: tutti i popoli invece in ogni tempo saranno retti da quest'unica legge eterna e immutabile; ed unico comune maestro, per così dire e sovrano di tutti sarà Dio; di questa legge egli solo è l'autore, l'interprete, il legislatore;

Book The Speculum Astronomiae and Its Enigma

Download or read book The Speculum Astronomiae and Its Enigma written by P. Zambelli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-12-21 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The attribution of the Speculum Astronomiae to Albertus Magnus became a controversial issue only recently, when the great neo-Thomist historian Pierre Mandonnet suggested -- without any antecedents -- that the author was Roger Bacon rather than Albert. Mandonnet's theses were refuted by Lynn Thorndike and have since then been the subject of widespread discussion. The present historiographical case-study considers this debate in the light of an analysis of texts by Albert himself, as well as other important authors, such as Bacon, Bonaventura, Thomas Aquinas, Witelo, Campanus of Novara, and others, which shows how widespread the general concept of the influence of the stars and other astrological ideas to be found in the Speculum were. Most of the scientific ideas of the Middle Ages were based on principles derived from the notion of celestial influence and its consequences. The Speculum drew the fundamental outlines of this discipline into a theoretical and bibliographical introduction -- no small achievement -- and was consequently greeted with great interest and used as a standard reference book for many centuries. Set against the background of discussions taking place in the 1260s, within the Dominican Order as well as in the Faculties of Arts, Zambelli removes all doubt that the Speculum was written by Albert, possibly with some collaboration.
