Confirming Cajetan as a key protagonist within the emergent Reformation, this work delivers an indispensable immersion into his theological method in relation to his closest predecessors and contemporaries: Hervaeus Natalis, Blessed Duns Scotus, Gregory of Rimini, Johannes Capreolus, Silvestro Mazzolini da Prierio, Martin Luther, and others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first ever commentary on St. Thomas Aquinas’s entire \u003ci\u003eSumma Theologiae\u003c\/i\u003e was published by Cajetan. This monograph focuses primarily on the \u003ci\u003eSumma Theologiae Ia pars\u003c\/i\u003e, question 1, concerning sacred doctrine, and how Cajetan unpacks the potency of Aquinas’s opening syllogism, setting forth a coherent division of the question, and ultimately touching the mind of Aquinas when revealing the articles of the Apostles’ Creed as the \u003ci\u003eSumma Theologiae’s\u003c\/i\u003e macrostructure. Finally, we are shown how Cajetan emphasizes the essential link between ecclesiology and the communication of sacred doctrine, especially the papacy’s role in guaranteeing the proposal and explication of the faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCajetan’s accomplishments as a biblical exegete established him as a renowned Renaissance scholar and a forerunner of future ecumenical dialogue. Furthermore, his grasp of theology’s perennial properties continue to make him an important interlocutor in the renewed quest for a unity in theology in an ever more fragmented aggregation of theologies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCajetan’s theological labor is a perpetuation of the \u003ci\u003evia antiqua\u003c\/i\u003e, a biblical-theological worldview handed down through Tradition. St. Gregory the Theologian (329-390), the \u003ci\u003evia antiqua’s\u003c\/i\u003e preeminent Eastern representative and chief theological constructor of Christendom, offers the monograph’s author--himself a Byzantine Hieromonk--a prime opportunity for a few closing insights on the innate symphony between two very distant periods and distinct theological traditions within the one ecumenical Church.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54863385756022,"sku":"9780813233475","price":59.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_36044833_61590bac-91f7-4e41-a2d6-bd99d1ec599f.jpg?v=1757580370","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780813233475-cajetan-on-sacred-doctrine","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
