Aquinas on Doctrine provides a critical study of many important Christian doctrines in the thought of one of the great Doctors of the Church. Rather than focusing on the philosophy of Aquinas, as has been examined in recent Aquinas studies, this volume seeks to understand Aquinas first and foremost as a Christian theologian. In doing so, such topics as Scripture, creation, the Trinity, Christology, soteriology, the sacraments, ecclesiology, the sermon, mariology, and eschatology are examined by a fine cast of Thomistic scholars. The contributors include (among others) Thomas Weinandy, Aidan Nichols, Daniel Keating, and David Burrell. The essays will prove beneficial not only for Aquinas specialists, but also for those wanting a clear introduction to the doctrinal thought of Thomas.
