About the Book

The aim of this book is to highlight the great variety of interpretations of Aquinas' work that have begun to develop since the 1980's. Much of this renewal of scholarship has been conducted by specialists, and communicated only amongst them. This book aims to provide a more general scholarly English readership with access to a far greater variety of approaches to Aquinas, as a way of expanding and developing the reception of the contemporary reading of Aquinas. This book does not aim to give a coherent or exhaustive picture of current Aquinas scholarship, neither to be a reader of, nor provide a history of, Thomism. What it will do is introduce readers to widely differing (often starkly contrasting) readings of Aquinas, and provide a context and an invitation to go deeper into the scholarship from which each chapter emerges.

Table of Contents:
Introduction, Fergus Kerr; Aquinas's reform of moral teaching - and its failure, Mark Jordan; from argument to bliss: intellectual virtue in the "Summa Theologiae", A.N. Williams; how to read the "Summa" as a science, Rudi te Velde; Aquinas in relation to his Jewish and Islamic counterparts, David Burrell CSC; Heidegger's Aquinas, Laurence Paul Hemming; the Utrecht school, Herwi Rikhof; current trends in American Thomism, Robert Miner; Aquinas and natural law: the turn of the American Aquinas scholarship, Susan Parsons; Aquinas and Luther, Otto Hermann Pesch; Aquinas in his medieval place, Phillip Lyndon Reynolds; Aquinas and Platonism, Fran O'Rourke; early modern interpretation of Aquinas, Martin Stone.

Review :
'Drawing on a wide range of writers, from Duns Scotus to Simon Schama, as well as on poetry and his memories of his own childhood in Dorset, Sheldrake offers a rich and original way of meditating on the importance of place and places in our lives.' Fergus Kerr, OP, Regent of Studies, Blackfriars, Oxford
