Teaching the Tradition: Twelfth-Century Scholastic Commentaries on Paul's Letter to the Romans Teaching the Tradition: Twelfth-Century Scholastic Commentaries on Paul’s Letter to the Romans by Peter Francis O’Hagan A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Peter O’Hagan 2017 Teaching the Tradition: Twelfth-Century Scholastic Commentaries on Paul’s Letter to the Romans Peter Francis O’Hagan Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This thesis provides the first study of the relationship between three of the most important commentaries on Paul’s Letter to the Romans produced in the cathedral schools of northern France during the twelfth century, a period usually defined as “early scholasticism.” Studies of this period normally focus on the theological works of the teachers in these schools, leaving to one side their biblical exegesis. This thesis argues for the central importance of biblical exposition to the study of theology in early scholasticism by emphasizing two related aspects of these commentaries: first, that they are the result of classroom teaching rather than written treatises, and second, that the primary goal of this teaching was the handing on of a tradition of reflection on the Bible. The first chapter studies the so-called Glossa ‘ordinaria’ on Romans. The Glossa was the most important exposition of Romans in the twelfth century, existing in hundreds of manuscripts and forming the basis for teaching. The first chapter traces the sources and methodology of the Glossa, arguing that it is better understood as a classroom text than as a reference work. The second chapter turns to the Glossa’s most influential user, Peter Lombard (d. 1160), whose Magna glosatura on Romans also exists in hundreds of manuscripts. Chapter two analyzes Lombard’s use of the Glossa and how he uses it as the gateway to his own teaching of Romans. ii The third chapter studies the Postille in Apostolum of Stephen Langton (c.1150-1228), tracing Langton’s use of Lombard’s Magna in his own teaching of Romans and arguing for the unity of Langton’s biblical lectures and his theological works. This study therefore establishes a trajectory of teaching the tradition of reflection on the Pauline Epistles, from the Glossa, through Lombard’s Magna, to Langton’s Postille. iii Acknowledgments It has been a long process, but here it is at last! And I am now permitted a moment to thank those who have been so important in getting me to this point. First, I must acknowledge the members of my doctoral committee, the Dream Team, Professors Alexander Andrée, Joseph Goering, and Giulio Silano. They sparked my love for the Middle Ages during my undergraduate at St. Michael’s College, and I have (almost!) never regretted taking the path their teaching and enthusiasm inspired. They have been encouraging and supportive throughout my university years, and eminently patient as I struggled to define and write my project. I would also like to acknowledge others who have helped me in presenting and developing my work. In particular, Prof. Mark J. Clark, for co-organizing with Prof. Andrée the Toronto- Washington colloquia on the study of the Bible where I was able to present research in progress, and for providing me with valuable feedback which I incorporated into the dissertation. Profs. Lawrin Armstrong, Suzanne Akbari, and the other members of the Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto, as well as Dr. Andreas Speer and the other members of the University of Cologne, who organized the Cologne-Toronto graduate symposium in 2015, at which I was able again to present work in progress; also Dr. Peter Orth, who provided helpful feedback at that symposium. Finally, my acknowledgements could hardly be complete without mentioning my ever-loving parents, Margaret and Dennis, and my wonderful siblings, Katie, Heidi, and Paul. Without their support, I never could have had the fortitude to complete what has been an arduous, though rewarding, process. iv Table of Contents List of Tables

  • LATERAN IV to IGNORANTIA SACERDOTUM by Andrew B
    TEACHING THE CREED AND ARTICLES OF FAITH IN ENGLAND: LATERAN IV TO IGNORANTIA SACERDOTUM By Andrew B. Reeves A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Andrew B. Reeves 2009 Abstract Title: Teaching the Creed and Articles of Faith in England: Lateran IV to Ignorantia sacerdotum Submitted by: Andrew B. Reeves Degree: Doctor of Philosophy (2009) Department: Medieval Studies, University of Toronto This study examines how English laypeople and clergy of lower ranks were taught the basic principles of Christian doctrine as articulated in the Apostles‘ Creed and Articles of Faith. Chapter one addresses the theological and historical background. Over the course of the twelfth century, school-based theologians came to place an increasing emphasis on faith as a cognitive state while at the same time moral theologians sought to make sure that all Christians had a basic participation in the life of the Church. These trends led to an effort by the Church as an institution to make sure that all Christians had at least a basic understanding of the Christian religion. Chapter two examines how the episcopate carried out a drive to ensure this basic level of understanding through the venues of councils, synods, and deanery and archdeaconry meetings. In all three of these venues, the requirements of making sure the laity know the Creed and Articles of Faith were passed on to parochial clergy, and through these clergy to the laity. Chapter three concerns one particular aspect of presenting the basics of doctrine to the laity, viz., preaching.

Rosemann Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland Abstract Until very recently, the theological literature approached tradition almost exclusively as a phenomenon of continuity. But tradition involves several forms of rupture, both in its beginning and in its development. This paper distinguishes four: irruption (of the divine), forgetting, ‘destruction’ (together with retrieval/repetition), and exclusion. The argument draws on philosophers such as Martin Heidegger, Michel Foucault, and Jean-Luc Marion, but it is scripturally rooted and finds confirmation in Christian authors like Denys the Carthusian, Martin Luther, and Henri de Lubac. Keywords foolishness of the Cross, incident at Antioch, Mount Sinai, mystical body, tradition efore Luther’s sola Scriptura battle-cry, tradition was not a major topic of theological Breflection.1 Its role in the transmission of the Christian faith was naïvely assumed rather than examined and justified.2 In response to sola Scriptura, the Council of Trent explicitly affirmed the validity of tradition as a source of doctrine. Whether this was intended by the council or not, in the wake of Trent the notion of tradition hardened, in particular in the concept of the loci theologici, the ‘places’ or sources of theological 1 The most comprehensive account of the history of discussions of tradition is Jean-Georges Boeglin, La question de la Tradition dans la théologie catholique contemporaine, Cogitatio fidei 205 (Paris: Cerf, 1998).

  • Religion As a Virtue: Thomas Aquinas on Worship Through Justice, Law
    RELIGION AS A VIRTUE: THOMAS AQUINAS ON WORSHIP THROUGH JUSTICE, LAW, AND CHARITY Submitted by Robert Jared Staudt A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctorate in Theology Director: Dr. Matthew Levering Ave Maria University 2008 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION CHAPTER ONE: THE CLASSICAL AND PATRISTIC TRADITION CHAPTER TWO: THE MEDIEVAL CONTEXT CHAPTER THREE: WORSHIP IN THE WORKS OF ST. THOMAS AQUINAS CHAPTER FOUR: JUSTICE AS ORDER TO GOD CHAPTER FIVE: GOD’S ASSISTANCE THROUGH LAW CHAPTER SIX: TRUE WORSHIP IN CHRIST CONCLUSION BIBLIOGRAPHY ABBREVIATIONS 2 INTRODUCTION Aquinas refers to religion as virtue. What is the significance of such a claim? Georges Cottier indicates that “to speak today of religion as a virtue does not come across immediately as the common sense of the term.”1 He makes a contrast between a sociological or psychological evaluation of religion, which treats it as “a religious sentiment,” and one which strives for truth.2 The context for the second evaluation entails both an anthropological and Theistic context as the two meet within the realm of the moral life. Ultimately, the study of religion as virtue within the moral life must be theological since it seeks to under “the true end of humanity” and “its historic condition, marked by original sin and the gift of grace.”3 Aquinas places religion within the context of a moral relation to God, as a response to God’s initiative through Creation and 4 Redemption. 1 Georges Cardinal Cottier. “La vertu de religion.” Revue Thomiste (jan-juin 2006): 335. 2 Joseph Bobik also distinguished between different approaches to the study of religion, particularly theological, philosophical, and scientific, all of which would give different answers to the question “what is religion?.” Veritas Divina: Aquinas on Divine Truth: Some Philosophy of Religion.
