The Influence of St. Augustine's thought upon that of St. Thomas
Aquinas is well known. With the exception of particular
philosophical controversies, however, relatively little research
has been done in this area. In summaries of medieval theology,
Aquinas is often seen as a follower of Aristotle over the
traditional "Augustinians" of his day. Against this emphasis on
Aristotle, the influence upon Aquinas of such thinkers as
Pseudo-Dionysius has been highlighted in recent research. While
happily granting the influence of such figures as Aristotle and
Pseudo-Dionysius, this book explores the impact of Augustine's
thought on Aquinas's theology, philosophy, and biblical exegesis.
The result is an enrichment of our understanding of Aquinas's
contributions and a renewed awareness of his extraordinary
indebtedness to his fifth-century teacher. The book is composed of
eleven essays by an international group of renowned scholars from
the United States, England, Switzerland, Holland, and Italy. The
contributors are Gilles Emery, O.P., Harm Goris, Wayne Hankey, Mark
Johnson, Matthew Lamb, Matthew Levering, Guy Mansini, O.S.B., Bruce
D. Marshall, John O'Callaghan, John Rist, and Michael Sherwin, O.P.
