Die Summa Theologica (übersetzt "Zusammenfassung der Theologie"), oft einfach als Summa bezeichnet, ist das bekannteste Werk von Thomas von Aquin (1225-1274), einem scholastischen Theologen und Kirchendoktor. Sie stellt ein Kompendium der wichtigsten theologischen Lehren der katholischen Kirche dar, das als Leitfaden für Theologiestudenten, Seminaristen und Laien dienen soll. Die Themen der "Summa", in denen die Argumentation für fast alle Inhalte der christlichen Theologie im Abendland dargelegt wird, folgen dem folgenden Zyklus: Gott, die Schöpfung, der Mensch, die Bestimmung des Menschen, Christus, die Sakramente und zurück zu Gott. Obwohl sie unvollendet ist, gehört die "Summa" nicht nur zu den Klassikern der Philosophiegeschichte, sondern ist eines der einflussreichsten Werke der abendländischen Literatur und bleibt Aquins vollkommenste Schrift, die Frucht seiner reifen Jahre, in der sich das Denken seines ganzen Lebens verdichtet. Der Autor zitiert immer wieder christliche, muslimische, hebräische und heidnische Quellen, darunter die Heilige Schrift, Aristoteles, Augustinus von Hippo, Avicenna, Averroes, Al-Ghazali, Boethius, Johannes von Damaskus, Paulus der Apostel, Pseudo-Dionysius, Maimonides, Anselm von Canterbury, Platon, Cicero und einige andere. Dies ist Band fünf von zehn mit den Quaestiones 67 - 114 der Secundae Partis.

Joachim of Fiore (c.1135-1202) remains one of the most fascinating and enigmatic figures of medieval Christianity. In his own time, he was an influential advisor to the mighty and powerful, widely respected for his prophetic exegesis and decoding of the apocalypse. In modern times, many thinkers, from Thomas Müntzer to Friedrich Engels, have hailed him as a prophet of progress and revolution. Even present-day theologians, philosophers and novelists were inspired by Joachim’s vision of a Third Age of the Holy Spirit. However, at no time was Joachim an uncontroversial figure. Soon after his death, the church authorities became suspicious about the explosive potential of his theology, while more recently historians held him accountable for the fateful progressivism of Western Civilization.

Throughout Europe, the exercise of justice rests on judicial independence by impartiality. In Reason and Fairness Ulrike Müßig reveals the combination of ordinary judicial competences with procedural rationality, together with the complementarity of procedural and substantive justice, as the foundation for the ‘rule of law’ in court constitution, far earlier than the advent of liberal constitutionalism. The ECHR fair trial guarantee reads as the historically-grown consensus of the functional judicial independence. Both before historical and contemporary courts, justice is done and seen to be done by means of judgements, whose legal requirements combine the equation of ‘fair’ and ‘legal’ with that of ‘legal’ and ‘rational.’ This legal determinability of the judge’s fair attitude amounts to the specific (rational) European idea of justice.

Knowledge of the pragmatici sheds new light on pragmatic normative literature (mainly from the religious sphere), a genre crucial for the formation of normative orders in early modern Ibero-America. Long underrated by legal historical scholarship, these media – manuals for confessors, catechisms, and moral theological literature – selected and localised normative knowledge for the colonial worlds and thus shaped the language of normativity. The eleven chapters of this book explore the circulation and the uses of pragmatic normative texts in the Iberian peninsula, in New Spain, Peru, New Granada and Brazil. The book reveals the functions and intellectual achievements of pragmatic literature, which condensed normative knowledge, drawing on medieval scholarly practices of ‘epitomisation’, and links the genre with early modern legal culture.

Meyer, Osvaldo Moutin, and David Rex Galindo.

A confluence of scholarly interest has resulted in a revival of Thomistic scholarship across the world. Several areas in the investigation of St. Thomas Aquinas, however, remain under-explored. This volume contributes to two of these neglected areas. First, the volume evaluates the contemporary relevance of St. Thomas's views for the philosophy and practice of education. The second area explored involves the intersections of the Angelic Doctor’s thought and the numerous cultures and intellectual traditions of the East. Contributors to this section examine the reception, creative appropriation, and various points of convergence between St. Thomas and the East.

In Medieval Theories of Divine Providence 1250-1350 Mikko Posti presents a historical and philosophical study of the doctrine of divine providence in 13th- and 14th-century Latin philosophical theology. In addition to offering a fresh and engaging reading of Thomas Aquinas’s ideas concerning providence, Posti focuses on Siger of Brabant, Peter Auriol and Thomas Bradwardine, among others. The book also provides an extended treatment of the relatively little-known 13th-century work Liber de bona fortuna, consisting of Latin translations of chapters found originally in Aristotle’s Ethica Eudemia and Magna moralia. In their treatments of Liber de bona fortuna, the medieval theologians provided philosophically interesting explanations of good fortune and its relationship to divine providence.
