Aquinas (1224-74) lived at a time when the Christian West was opening up to a wealth of Greek and Islamic philosophical speculation. An embodiment of the thirteenth-century ideal of a unified interpretation of reality (in which philosophy and theology work together in harmony), Aquinas was remarkable for the way in which he used and developed this legacy of ancient thought—an achievement which led his contemporaries to regard him as an advanced thinker. Father Copleston's lucid and stimulating book examines this extraordinary man—whose influence is perhaps greater today than in his own lifetime—and his thought, relating his ideas wherever possible to problems as they are discussed today.

The church is made up of both the clergy and the laity. And for it to properly fulfill the mission for which it was instituted by Christ, all its members, each according to his or her God-given gift, must contribute both to the upbuilding of the church and to its mission. On the part of the laity, their active participation in the general mission of the church ad intra and ad extra has been a great challenge in the life and practice of the church throughout its history. The Second Vatican Council, in its spirit of aggiornamento, makes some positive difference. This work critically examines the conciliar documents, some relevant postconciliar documents, and theological reflection of some theologians. And finally, it proffers solutions that will enhance the active participation of the laity in the mission of the church in general and the church in Southeast Nigeria in particular.

This study addresses two desiderata of historical emotion research: reflecting on the interdependence of textual functions and the representation of emotions, and acknowledging the interdependence of studies on the premodern and modern periods in the history of emotion. Contemporary research on the history of emotion is characterised by a proliferation of studies on very different eras, authors, themes, texts, and aspects. The enthusiasm and confidence with which situations, actions, and interactions involving emotions in history are discovered, however, has led to overly direct attempts to access the represented objects (emotions/feelings/affects); as a result, too little attention has been paid to the conditions and functions of their representations. That is why this study engages with the emotion research of historians from an unashamedly philological perspective. Such an approach provides, among other things, insights into the varied, often contradictory, observations that can be made about the history of emotion in modernity and premodernity.

although Hans Urs von Balthasar’s earliest publication is from 1925, and although he was a mature forty years old in 1945, there is a deficiency in the secondary literature regarding his early literature, its historical backgrounds and non-theological sources. In this study Balthasar is presented in relation to the various contexts in which he was both drawing upon and responding to from the 1920s to the 1940s. The major contexts analyzed here are the broad central European Germanophone cultural context, the Germanophone Catholic cultural context, the German studies context, the French Catholic renewal literature and theology of the early 20th-century, the popular journal Stimmen der Zeit, Neo-Scholasticism, early 20th-century French Catholic culture, Swiss fascism, National Socialist literature, the Renouveau Catholique, the George-Kreis and many others. Balthasar’s early anti-Semitism and some of the problematic aspects of his early work are also addressed in this study. His understanding of the modern age, his relationships with some key intellectual figures and his later reflections on his early work are also introduced. The book offers a comprehensive study of Balthasar’s early intellectual development.

Between Medieval Men is a radical new study of same-sex relations (both erotic and non-erotic) in the Anglo-Saxon period. David Clark's nuanced approach to gender and sexuality seeks to step outside modern cultural assumptions in order to explore the diversity and complexity that he shows to be characteristic of the period.

This book studies literary epiphany as a modality of character in the British and American novel. Epiphany presents a significant alternative to traditional models of linking the eye, the mind, and subject formation, an alternative that consistently attracts the language of spirituality, even in anti-supernatural texts. This book analyzes how these epiphanies become "spiritual" and how both character and narrative shape themselves like constellations around such moments. This study begins with James Joyce, 'inventor' of literary epiphany, and Martin Heidegger, who used the ancient Greek concepts behind 'epiphaneia' to re-define the concept of Being. Kim then offers readings of novels by Susan Warner, George Eliot, Edith Wharton, Virginia Woolf, and William Faulkner, each addressing a different form of epiphany.

M. Lindsay Kaplan expands the study of the history of racism through an analysis of the medieval Christian concept of Jewish servitude. Developed through exegetical readings of Biblical figures in canon law, this discourse produces a racial status of hereditary inferiority that justifies the subordination not only of Jews, but of Muslims and Africans as well.

CHALLENGING THE MYTHS OF GENDER EQUALITY: THEOLOGY AND FEMINISM The book offers critical insight into the significance of synergy between feminist theory and theological anthropology in combating sexism in our society today. The analysis of feminisms challenge of male-chauvinistic discourse that has been for centuries an instrument of patriarchal manipulation is very elucidating. The authors use of Genesis creation narrative to show how God intends that all live in love and communion, and show equal regard to each other is exceptionally provocative. Even though Michael believes that Jesus may not be rightly termed a feminist in the modern understanding of the term, he demonstrates how Jesus critical stance towards some androcentric structures of his day is a testimony to his vision and mission of inclusive kingdom where all are equal. The book is very important for anyone committed to ensuring a society devoid of gender-based discriminations and violence. Prof. Dr. Annemie Dillens remarks on the book is worth noting: Michael Muonwe has made it clear that the experiences by women of social exclusion and disadvantage require a thorough dialogue between feminism and Christianity. In a global context where Christianity and feminism are mutually condemning each other, this book offers a profound insight into many differences within feminism and feminist theology, and thus avoids all-too-easy generalizations Both the author and his work continue to encourage me, and I hope all readers will also acknowledge the value, the richness, and the joy of doing theology (Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium). According to Prof. em. Dr. Peter Schmidt, This book should be known by many, not only by those who are already engaged on the problem of gender inequality, but maybe still more by those who have no real knowledge of the problem and its urgency. The author is not only an expert on the matter, but both his clarity of thought and style, and his genuine commitment to the cause make it a most commendable reading (Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium).

The biblical narrative of Sodom and Gomorrah has served as an archetypal story of divine antipathy towards same sex love and desire. 'Sodomy' offers a study of the reception of this story in Christian and Jewish traditions from antiquity to the Reformation. The book argues that the homophobic interpretation of Sodom and Gomorrah is a Christian invention which emerged in the first few centuries of the Christian era. The Jewish tradition - in which Sodom and Gomorrah are associated primarily with inhospitality, xenophobia and abuse of the poor - presents a very different picture. The book will be of interest to students and scholars seeking a fresh perspective on biblical approaches to sexuality.
