But as this dissertation explores, the association of amor with fire played a precise and wide-ranging role in Bonaventure’s understanding of the soul’s motive power--its capacity to love and be united with God, especially as that capacity was demonstrated in an exemplary way through the spiritual ascent and death of St. Francis. In drawing out this association, Bonaventure develops a theory of the soul and its capacity for transformation in union with God that gives specificity to the Christian desire for self-abandonment in God and the annihilation of the soul in union with God. Though Bonaventure does not use the language of the soul coming to nothing, he describes a state of ecstasy or excessus mentis that is possible in this life, but which constitutes the death and transformation of the soul in union with God.

  • Testing the Prophets BERNARD of SYMEON the NEW IBN TAYMIYYA CLAIRVAUX THEOLOGIAN
    Testing the Prophets BERNARD OF SYMEON THE NEW IBN TAYMIYYA CLAIRVAUX THEOLOGIAN ➔ CAMEL MEAT Reason does not suffice without revelation nor does revelation suffice without reason. The one who would urge pure taqlīd and the total rejection of reason is in error and he who would make do with pure reason apart from the lights of the Koran and the Sunna is deluded. If you are in doubt about whether a certain person is a prophet or not, certainty can be had only through knowledge of what he is like, either by personal observation or reports and testimony. If you have an understanding of medicine and jurisprudence, you can recognize jurists and doctors by observing what they are like, and listening to what they had to say, even if you haven’t observed them. So you have no difficulty recognizing that Shāfiʿī was a jurist or Galen a doctor, this being knowledge of what is in fact the case and not a matter of taqlīd shown to another person. Rather, since you know something of jurisprudence and medicine, and you have perused their books and treatises, you have arrived at necessary knowledge about what they are like. Likewise, once you grasp the meaning of prophecy and then investigate the Qurʾān and [ḥadīth] reports extensively, you arrive at necessary knowledge that [Muḥammad] is at the highest degree of prophecy. Thirst for grasping the true natures of things was a habit and practice of mine from early on in my life, an inborn and innate tendency (gharīza wa-fiṭra) given by God in my very nature, not chosen or contrived.

Dunthorne Abstract This thesis explores the role of Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) in the development of theological thought in the late eleventh and early twelfth centuries. It aims to demonstrate that Anselm’s thought had a greater impact on the early development of scholastic theology than is often recognized, particularly in the areas of the doctrine of the incarnation and redemption, but also in his discussion of freedom and sin.

  • Medieval Theologians: an Introduction to Theology in the Medieval Period
    Mystics, Masters, and Martyrs: Theology and Theologians in Medieval Europe January 2017 9-11:30am, Gardencourt 206 Instructor: Christopher Elwood Course Description: This course will explore the lives, thought, and context of significant Christian figures of the Middle Ages in Europe: Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109), Marguerite Porete (d. 1310), and Gregory Palamas (1296- 1359). We will focus on themes of revelation and knowledge of God, attending to how these theologians and spiritual authors integrated practice and belief, spirituality, and theology. In addition, students will have the opportunity to research another medieval theologian of their choice. Goals and Objectives: The goal of the course is to help students develop their capacity for faithful and coherent theological expression in pastoral practice. Students will • gain a basic understanding of the different forms of theology and spirituality developed and practiced in Europe in the Middle Ages, • sharpen their skills of theological interpretation through the close reading and discussion of primary sources, orally and in writing, • develop their ability to make responsible and relevant use of historic theological writing, • reflect on various models for integrating the analytical, devotional and practical components of theology and spiritual writing, • and clarify their own theological and ethical positions. Required Books: Anselm of Canterbury: The Major Works. Eds. Brian Davis and G.R. Evans. Oxford World’s Classics. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, 1998.

  • Aquinas and “Alcuin”: a New Source of the Catena Aurea on John
    AQUINAS AND “ALCUIN”: A NEW SOURCE OF THE CATENA AUREA ON JOHN Alexander ANDRÉE, Tristan SHARP, and Richard SHAW Abstract In the Catena aurea Thomas Aquinas brought together commentary extracted from the works of all the major Fathers on the four Gospels. Unknown to him and to all scholars since, however, his citations from Alcuin in the Catena on John did not in fact come from the Northumbrian’s Commentarius. They derive instead from a commentary on John’s Gospel probably compiled by Anselm of Laon in the early twelfth century. This same text, the Glosae super Iohannem, was also the principal source for the so-called Glossa ordinaria on John. Through both the Glossa and the Catena therefore this intriguing text indi- rectly ensured the continued and widespread influence of Anselm and his teaching throughout the later Middle Ages. The Catena aurea, or Glossa (expositio) continua in Matthaeum, Mar- cum, Lucam, Iohannem, as it was originally known,1 was one of Thomas Aquinas’s most important and popular works. It marked “a turning point in the development of Aquinas’s theology as well as in the history of Catholic dogma.”2 The Catena was also one of the “most widely diffused works of Aquinas, both in manuscript and in print.”3 The very sobriquet, ‘Golden Chain’, which the Glossa con- tinua gained within a century of its composition, is testimony to the 1 Quotations from the Catena will be from: S. Thomae Aquinatis Catena Aurea in quattuor Evangelia, I: Expositio in Matthaeum et Marcum, II: Expositio in Lucam et Ioan- nem, ed.

  • The Twelfth-Century Renaissance Spring 2012, Palmer 205, TR 11:00-12:15
    1 History 415-01: The Twelfth-Century Renaissance Spring 2012, Palmer 205, TR 11:00-12:15 Professor Alex Novikoff Office: Buckman 219 Office Hours: TR 2-4 PM, and by appointment Email: [email protected] Course Overview In 1927 the great American medievalist Charles Homer Haskins published his classic work, The Renaissance of the Twelfth Century. The book was both an assessment of what was a widely-recognized turning point in European history and culture and an appropriation for that period of the recently popularized term “renaissance,” by then conventionally located in the late fourteenth through the late sixteenth centuries. The purpose of this course is fourfold: to look at Haskins’ great book, to consider aspects of the twelfth century that Haskins did not, to reconsider some of those that he did, and to ponder his and others’ use of the term “renaissance” to describe the twelfth century. Thus this seminar will sample the wide range of intellectual, political, institutional, spiritual, and cultural developments that took place in Western Europe between the late eleventh century and the late twelfth century, using primary sources as our guide and supplemented by generous readings from the best recent scholarship. Among the topics we will investigate are the study of the liberal arts in cathedral schools and the first universities; the centralization of political authority in France and England; the spiritual renewal associated with new monastic orders; the music and poetry of the traveling Minstrels that embody the twelfth-century spirit of chivalry and courtly love; and the increasingly fraught relations between Christians and Jews that resulted in part from this intellectual renaissance.
