Scriptum Super Libros Sententiarum Wadding Opera Omnia (1639) The Cleansing of the Heart Introduction In Christian usage, the concept of “sacrament” came to signify a wide array of theological ideas early in the Church’s history, being applied broadly to define essential traits of the Church, both ritually and doc- trinally.1 More than a reference to individual sacraments, “sacramen- tality” says something essential about the Christian mystery and speaks subsequently of particular ritual acts in light of this. To the de- gree that we are tempted to reduce the concept of sacramentality, the Second Vatican Council teaches that the Church herself is the “visible sacrament” of the unity offered to all through the sacrifice of Christ.2 In this, Vatican II refocuses the paradigm for the theological use of the term within the patristic tradition, such that the theological naming of the ritual dimension of the Church’s life links the concept of sac- ramentality intrinsically not only to who the Church is but what she does.3 As the title indicates, this book is concerned with “the cleansing of the heart”4—a phrase borrowed from St. Augustine that describes the effects that natural elements (such as water) have on the human person when taken up by the Church as sacramental signs. 1.

Tr. 80.3. 1 2 Introduction Because the Church exists for a purpose, the efficacy of the sacra- ments has been important to the Church since the beginning of her history. Because the Church is sacrament, her purpose is sacramen- tal, and those theological and ritual realities that we label sacraments must serve this ecclesial reality in order to retain their name. Sacra- mental efficacy, therefore, is in one sense a question of terminolog- ical authenticity. To say that a given theological or ritual reality is a sacrament is to say that it is intrinsically ordered to the essence and purpose of the Church’s life. Because of the ecclesial nature of this question, it essentially concerns theology itself prior to hermeneuti- cal questions of method, theological school, or personal interest. For this reason the question of what the sacraments effect and how they effect it has emerged in a variety of different contexts throughout the Church’s history, driven not only by pastoral or formational concerns but by the contemplative curiosity of theology itself. This book is concerned with sacramental causality as a theologi- cal question—a terminological formulation of this same fundamen- tal question that first emerged explicitly in the early scholastic peri- od and became an essential point of theological reflection and debate for the following centuries for thinkers from across the tradition. The purpose of this volume is to explore the meaning and broader theo- logical significance of sacramental causality from a Thomistic per- spective, situating Aquinas’ approach to this essential question both historically and doctrinally. For Aquinas, theology understood as sa- cra doctrina is essentially one science; therefore, although subjects can be studied individually, positive statements about a single sub- ject cannot be made without implicitly invoking the broader whole.

  • The Passions of the Will and the Passion of Christ in Franciscantheologyfromthe Summa Halensis to Duns Scotus
    Andrew V. Rosato The Passions of the Will and the Passion of Christ in FranciscanTheologyfromthe Summa Halensis to Duns Scotus Abstract: This chapter examines how the Summa Halensis’ analysis of Christ’ssorrow was adopted and modified by later Franciscan theologians.Accordingtothe teach- ing of Jerome, which Peter Lombardmade available to medieval theologians,Christ’s sorrow arose from an involuntary reaction to his physical suffering. In order to ex- pand upon Jerome’saccount,the Summa Halensis develops an elaborate map of Christ’ssoul by drawing on psychological principles found in Augustine and John Damascene. 13th century theologians debated whether Christ could experience sor- row over his ownsuffering not justasanatural and instinctual reaction, but also as the result of freelywillingthat he not suffer.Anobstacle to asserting this would be anyimplication that Christ did not will by his human willwhat God willed him to will. Richard of Middleton, Matthew of Aquasparta, and Duns Scotus do af- firm that Christ in some wayfreelynilled his own suffering, and experiencedsorrow over it because of that.Indifferent ways they employ the account of Christ’ssoul out- lined in the Summa Halensis to avoid anyimplication that Christ fell into sin by freely nilling his ownsuffering. The GospelofMatthew reports that Jesus experienced sorrow in the Garden of Geth- semane (26:37–38): ‘he began to be sorrowful [coepit contristari]and troubled. Then he said to them, “My soul is sorrowful [tristis]tothe point of death.”’ Jerome offered an influential interpretation of this passagewhen he statedthatChrist experienced the propassion of sorrow rather than afull-fledgedform of thatpassion. One differ- ence between apropassion and afull-fledgedpassion is that apropassion does not overwhelm one’sability to use reason.

In Book III, questions concerning the incarnation of Christ were examined by generation after generation of scholars.

A significant phenomenon in the thirteenth century was the gradual intrusion of questions about Mary into Christological discussions on the Incarnation.

Vorwort Nun muss ich nicht mehr die Frage fürchten: „Und, wie steht es mit dem Thomas Handbuch?“ Noch so freundlich vorgetragen, erinnerte sie am Rande von Tagun- gen und Gremiensitzungen daran, dass ich, als ich vor über zehn Jahren die Auf- gabe übernahm, ein Nachschlagewerk zu der Zentralgestalt der mittelalterlichen Theologie vorzubereiten, nicht geahnt hatte, in welche Untiefen mich dieses Pro- jekt bringen würde. Die lange Dauer hat mir vor Augen geführt, wie schwierig es, zumal in Zeiten von Jubiläumsvorbereitungen und Reformations dekaden, ist, als Forscher den Spagat zwischen Neuzeit und Mittelalter zu wagen.

  • 1 the Summa Theologiae and the Reformed Traditions Christoph Schwöbel 1. Luther and Thomas Aquinas
    The Summa Theologiae and the Reformed Traditions Christoph Schwöbel 1. Luther and Thomas Aquinas: A Conflict over Authority? On 10 December 1520 at the Elster Gate of Wittenberg, Martin Luther burned his copy of the papal bull Exsurge domine, issued by pope Leo X on 15 June of that year, demanding of Luther to retract 41 errors from his writings. The time for Luther to react obediently within 60 days had expired on that date. The book burning was a response to the burning of Luther’s works which his adversary Johannes Eck had staged in a number of cities. Johann Agricola, Luther’s student and president of the Paedagogium of the University, who had organized the event at the Elster Gate, also got hold of a copy of the books of canon law which was similarly committed to the flames. Following contemporary testimonies it is probable that Agricola had also tried to collect copies of works of scholastic theology for the burning, most notably the Summa Theologiae. However, the search proved unsuccessful and the Summa was not burned alongside the papal bull since the Wittenberg theologians – Martin Luther arguably among them – did not want to relinquish their copies.1 The event seems paradigmatic of the attitude of the early Protestant Reformers to the Summa and its author. In Luther’s writings we find relatively frequent references to Thomas Aquinas, although not exact quotations.2 With regard to the person of Thomas Luther could gleefully report on the girth of Thomas Aquinas, including the much-repeated story that he could eat a whole goose in one go and that a hole had to be cut into his table to allow him to sit at the table at all.3 At the same time Luther could also relate several times and in different contexts in his table talks how Thomas at the time of his death experienced such grave spiritual temptations that he could not hold out against the devil until he confounded him by embracing his Bible, saying: “I believe what is written in this book.”4 At least on some occasions Luther 1 Cf.

Politics and Collective Action in Thomas Aquinas's On Kingship There is currently a vibrant debate in philosophy about the nature of collective intentionality and collective action. However, these topics are rarely explored in detail from the perspective of the history of philosophy. And if reference is made to the history of philosophy, it is mostly to antique authors like Plato1 or to modern authors such as Hobbes2, Rousseau3, or Kant4 – although it has been appreciated that these were important issues in the Middle Ages as well.5 Therefore, I would like to contribute a little bit to a broadened understanding of the history of these concepts by exploring the political philosophy of Thomas Aquinas.

It focuses mainly on painting and graphic arts, and selected aspects of photography, design and architecture. Appropriation from Japanese sources triggered the articulation of new visual and conceptual languages which helped forge new art and art educational paradigms that would define the modern age. Starting with Polish fin-de-siècle Japonisme, it examines the role of Western European artistic centres, mainly Paris, in the initial dissemination of Japonisme in Poland, and considers the exceptional case of Julian Żałat, who had first-hand experience of Japan. The second phase of Polish Japonisme (1901-1918) was nourished on local, mostly Cracovian, infrastructure put in place by the ‘godfather’ of Polish Japonisme Żeliks Manggha Jasieski. His pro-Japonisme agency is discussed at length.
