Rowland showcases here the dominant contemporary approaches to
doing Catholic theology. Chapter 1 offers a summary of the two
International Theological Commission (ITC) documents on the
discipline of Catholic theology. These documents set out the
general principles which should govern any approach to Catholic
theology (at least according to the ITC). The subsequent chapters
each focus on one of four different approaches frequently found in
contemporary Catholic academies: the approach of Thomists, members
of the Communio milieu, members of the Concilium milieu and
promoters of different varieties of Liberation Theology. Rowland's
work is pitched at the level of first time students of theology who
are trying to make sense of the methodological choices which
undergird the different approaches to Catholic theology. Rowland
concludes with four appendices: a list of all Doctors of the
Church, a list of all encyclicals since the 19th century, a list of
the documents of the Second Vatican Council, and a list of
definitions of the various Christological heresies which were the
subject of the debates of the early Church Councils. These
appendices will provide useful reference tables for young scholars,
including seminarians.
