Bernard Lonergan's theological writings have influenced
religious scholars ever since the first publication in the 1940s of
the series of five articles which make up "Verbum: Word and Idea in
Aquinas." These articles first appeared in "Theological Studies"
and were subsequently republished in book form in 1967 under the
present title. This volume contains a new preface by the editors
and full translations of all Latin texts.
"Verbum: Word and Idea in Aquinas" is a product of Lonergan's
eleven years of study of the thought of Thomas Aquinas. The work is
considered by many to be a breakthrough in the history of
Lonergan's theology and a foundation upon which his later
contributions were constructed. Here he interprets aspects in the
writing of Aquinas relevant to trinitarian theory and, as in most
of Lonergan's work, one of the principal aims is to assist the
reader in the search to understand the workings of the human
mind.
"Verbum: Word and Idea in Aquinas" is a vital component of
Lonergan's oeuvre, and of continuing relevance to trinitarian
theology, Aquinas studies, and inquiries into human cognition.
Bernard Lonergan (1904-1984), a professor of theology, taught at
Regis College, Harvard University, and Boston College. An
established author known for his Insight and Method in Theology,
Lonergan received numerous honorary doctorates, was a Companion of
the Order of Canada in 1971 and was named as an original members of
the International Theological Commission by Pope Paul VI.
