Art of God Incarnate: Theology and Image in Christian Tradition

Religion & Spirituality

Darton,Longman & Todd

Thomas Aquinas is one of the great figures in western thought, whose ideas continue to excert a powerful influence on theologians, contemporary writers and thinkers of very different backgrounds and traditions. This book is a lively and authoritative introduction to Aquinas, his life and thought and shows why many see him as a vital partner in contemporary debate about the future of Christianity.

Discovering Aquinas

History

Darton, Longman, and Todd

The author at the centre of this study, Russian priest-theologian Nikolai Nikolaevich Afanas'ev, was perhaps the most influential thinker about the Church Russia has produced. In Aidan Nichols's careful evaluation, he emerges as a key figure in the rapprochement of Christian East and West, and most notably of the Orthodox and Catholic churches. Nichols illustrates how Afanas'ev has been influential in two key respects: first of all in his conviction that the Eucharist constitutes the foundation of the whole Church; and secondly in his contribution to an Orthodox understanding of the role of the Roman Church and bishop in the context of a united Church. Afanas'ev's achievements are seen to have continuing relevance in view of the inauguration of the Orthodox-Catholic dialogue at the monastery of St John on Patmos in 1980, and the importance of his thinking in terms of contemporary ecumenism becomes clear. It is to such a reappraisal that this book - concerned as it is with how Russian orthodoxy understands the Church - is devoted, in the hope of an eventual restoration of unity between the Orthodox of all the Russias and the see of Rome.

Here, a leading English theologian provides a lucid and profound theological commentary on the new Catholic Catechism account of how Catholic Christians should worship liturgically, behave morally pray. This is a commentary which for its solidity and theological is set to acquire classic status as a study of the Church's teaching in these wide-ranging areas. A concluding chapter sets the Catechism against its background in the development of Christian pedagogy, and enquires into the sometimes jaundiced reception this text has artworks used to illustrate the original text forms a fitting finale.
