The Essential Summa Theologiae - A Reader And Commentary Av Frederick Chris Bauerschmidt

Saint Thomas Aquinas''s masterwork, the <i>Summa theologiae</i>, can be daunting to beginners. This volume by an expert on Aquinas''s theology offers an ideal introduction. It presents key selections from the <i>Summa </i>along with accessible commentary designed to provide background, explain key concepts, and walk readers through Aquinas''s arguments. Previously published as <i>Holy Teaching</i>, this new edition has been fully revised and includes a substantial amount of new material. The book draws from the entire <i>Summa</i> and incorporates selections that focus on moral theology, providing a fuller picture of Aquinas''s thought.
