Zusatztext Verand's remarkable study has the great merit of showing the import of this likeness in the minds of those who would speak Christ. And so it is to be hoped that it will prompt further discussion of the Divine Word's centrality in the functioning of our words. Informationen zum Autor Olivier-Thomas Venard is Deputy Director at École Biblique et Archéologique, Israel. Francesca Aran Murphy is Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Notre Dame, USA. Kenneth Oakes is Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Notre Dame, USA.An anthology drawn from Olivier-Thomas Venard’s trilogy Thomas d’Aquin Poète Théologien, providing a rich introduction both to Aquinas' philosophy and to Venard's greater work. Zusammenfassung Olivier-Thomas Venard's Thomas d’Aquin poète théologien trilogy, an in depth analysis of the scripture of St. Thomas Aquinas, is translated for a new audience in this streamlined anthology. Featuring selections from all three books in the trilogy, chosen in accordance with Venard's direction and discernment, it introduces not only arguments pertinent to the theme of this volume, but an invitation to explore the full breadth of Venard's work.Concentrating on the subjects of scripture, theology and literature, language as a theological question and the word of God, Murphy and Oakes capture the scope and energy of Venard's trilogy while collating many of its key passages. Ranging from the themes of a poetic gospel and Christology to the Thomist theories of semiology and the metaphysics of the Word, this volume sets scholars on the path to a deeper understanding of Aquinas's systematic theology.
