Thomas Aquinas and the Greek Fathers
For the sake of filling this lacuna and of piquing scholarly interest in Aquinas's relation to the Fathers of the Christian East, the Aquinas Center for Theological Renewal at Ave Maria University and the Thomistic Institute of the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception at the Dominican House of Studies co-sponsored an international gathering of scholars that took place at Ave Maria University under the title Thomas Aquinas and the Greek Fathers. Sensitive to the commonalities and the differences between Aquinas and the Greek Fathers, the essays in this volume have sprung from the theme of this conference and offer a harvest of some of the conference's fruits. At long last, scholars have a rich volume of diverse, penetrating essays that both underscore Aquinas's unique standing among the Latin scholastics in relationship to the Greek Fathers and point the way toward avenues of further study.

About the Authors
Reviews
"A milestone in the contemporary theological renewal."—Martin Morard, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique
"In the mid-twentieth century, a tragic dialectic arose that pitted scholasticsm against patristic theology, creating the illusion of an opposition. This seminal volume displays both the profound thematic continuity between Aquinas and the Greek Fathers as well as ways that St. Thomas developed patristic ideas in creative and important ways. In doing so, it underscores the dynamism and unity of classical Catholic theology and the intellectual patrimony of the Church."—Thomas Joseph White, OP, Thomistic Institute, Angelicum
"The 13 essays in this volume treat various Greek Fathers and the early ecumenical councils as to their influence upon Aquinas's thought, as well as the manner in which he came to know the Eastern theological tradition. All of the essays are academically outstanding."—Journal of Theological Studies
