Modern scholarship has examined the life and works of Robert
Grosseteste (ca. 1170-1253) mainly in a philosophical or episcopal
context, yet Grosseteste wrote many treatises on pastoral theology,
spent some years as a regent master in theology at the University
of Oxford, and maintained interest in theological discourse
throughout his time as Bishop of Lincoln. This book offers the
first scholarly study of Grosseteste as theologian, taking account
of the whole range of his theological writing both in published and
unedited sources. Ginther reveals the central focus of
Grosseteste's theology as the person and work of Christ, with the
person of Christ as the interpretive key by which humanity comes to
see the Trinity in the created world and the means by which
humanity may participate in the divine. Surveying some of the major
doctrinal issues of the thirteenth century, this book offers a
thorough introduction to the theology of the period.
