Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Tommaso d’Aquino (1225-1274) è uno dei pilastri del pensiero cristiano. La sua opera raccorda e armonizza il messaggio evangelico e la filosofia classica, la fede e la ragione. Eppure, scrive Chesterton, «questo grande personaggio meriterebbe di essere più conosciuto». E proprio intorno alla sua personalità ruota questa celebre biografia, a giudizio di molti tomisti, in primis Jacques Maritain e Anton C. Pegis, la migliore. Chesterton rievoca con la consueta ironia e sagacia le principali tappe della vita di Tommaso: la decisione giovanile di diventare frate mendicante del nuovo ordine fondato dallo spagnolo Domenico, strenuamente combattuta dalla sua ricca e potente famiglia che avrebbe voluto per lui ben altri onori; gli studi a Colonia sotto la guida sapiente di Alberto Magno – il filosofo e teologo tedesco che cercò di conciliare il cristianesimo con l’aristotelismo e che tanto lo influenzò –; l’approdo a Parigi e all’insegnamento universitario; infine il ritorno in Italia, la stesura della Summa Theologiae e la morte nell’abbazia cistercense di Fossanova, nei pressi di Latina. Come scrive Monsignor Luigi Negri nell’introduzione al volume: «All’inizio del terzo millennio ci troviamo in una situazione stranamente analoga a quella in cui san Tommaso visse la sua grande esperienza, nel senso che tanta tradizione cattolica è sentita dal popolo cattolico come una difficoltà, come un peso, come un condizionamento, e la tentazione di fuga verso compromessi con le ideologie secolari è più forte che mai. In questo quadro Tommaso ha ancora molto da dire alla Chiesa di oggi, non solo per le sue soluzioni di carattere strettamente filosofico ma soprattutto per lo spirito che ha incarnato, quello perennemente giovane della Chiesa, per il quale la fede va proposta nella sua radicale essenzialità e nella sua capacità di prendersi carico dell’esistenza concreta degli uomini e della società».

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Se Agostino riuscì a conciliare la filosofia di Platone con il cristianesimo, ottocento anni più tardi Tommaso d’Aquino, domenicano, agì in maniera simile con quella di Aristotele, appena riscoperto in Occidente nel secolo XIII dopo oltre millecinquecento anni di oblio. E non senza problemi e polemiche, in seno alla stessa Chiesa. Trovò la strada per raggiungere un equilibrio tra fede e ragione, due entità viste non più in modo conflittuale; sostenne che la conoscenza fosse essenziale per raggiungere la fede e che quest’ultima fosse anche un atto intellettivo. Con Tommaso nacque l’alta Scolastica, che fu avversata dalla dottrina francescana, secondo la quale era la fede il giudice di ultima istanza: due visioni che ancora oggi si riflettono sulle correnti teologiche del pensiero cristiano.

Download or read book The Pseudo historical Image of the Prophet Muhammad in Medieval Latin Literature A Repertory written by Michelina Di Cesare and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring and understanding how medieval Christians perceived and constructed the figure of the Prophet Muhammad is of capital relevance in the complex history of Christian-Muslim relations. Medieval authors writing in Latin from the 8th to the 14th centuries elaborated three main images of the Prophet: the pseudo-historical, the legendary, and the eschatological one. This volume focuses on the first image and consists of texts that aim to reveal the (Christian) truth about Islam. They have been taken from critical editions, where available, otherwise they have been critically transcribed from manuscripts and early printed books. They are organized chronologically in 55 entries: each of them provides information on the author and the work, date and place of composition, an introduction to the passage(s) reported, and an updated bibliography listing editions, translations and studies. The volume is also supplied with an introductory essay and an index of notable terms.
Download or read book Models of the History of Philosophy written by Giovanni Santinello and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the translation of "Dall'età cartesiana a Brucker", the second volume of the multi-volume work "Storia delle storie generali della filosofia". It guides the reader from the Cartesian rejection of the ‘philosophical past’ that found voice in the work of Malebranche, to the establishment of a ‘critical’ history of philosophy by 18th century thinkers A.-F Boureau-Deslandes and J.J. Brucker. The latter pair investigated philosophy from its most ancient origins up to the contemporary age, and oversaw the transformation of the history of philosophy into a genre in its own right, thus spawning dozens of works that made a major contribution to the culture of the Enlightenment. Through careful analysis of more than 36 separate works, the authors show how in the span of a single century the theoretical and methodological techniques used to assess the history of philosophy were refined and developed.

Download or read book Aquinas at Prayer written by Paul Murray OP and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquinas at Prayer draws attention to important aspects of Aquinas's life and work which have been all too often overlooked or forgotten. Today Aquinas is almost exclusively regarded as an outstanding scholastic philosopher and theologian. But what is little known is that Aquinas was, first and last, a teacher of the Bible - a Master of the Sacred Page. Moreover there is a distinctly mystical character to his theology. And, as a writer, he was not only a poet but, arguably, the greatest Latin poet of the Middle Ages. The primary focus of this most engaging new book is to explore the question of Aquinas's own practice of prayer and his teaching on prayer in his commentaries on the Psalms and St Paul. The book is strengthened by quotations from Aquinas in fresh translations.
Download or read book Nature and Scripture in the Abrahamic Religions Up to 1700 2 vols written by Scott Mandelbrote and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-01-31 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four companion volumes of Nature and Scripture in the Abrahamic Religions contribute to a contextual evaluation of the mutual influences between scriptural exegesis and hermeneutics on the one hand and practices or techniques of interpretation in natural philosophy and the natural sciences on the other. We seek to raise the low profile this theme has had both in the history of science and in the history of biblical interpretation. Furthermore, questions about the interpretation of scripture continue to be provoked by current theological reflection on scientific theories. We also seek to provide a historical context for renewed reflection on the role of the hermeneutics of scripture in the development of theological doctrines that interact with the natural sciences.
