The Incarnate Lord: A Thomistic Study in Christology (Thomistic Ressourcement)

Paperback |English |0813230098 | 9780813230092
Overview
"Provides excellent insight into how Christology would be manifest through the lenses of Thomas Aquinas. He does this by looking at central themes in Christology, giving particular attention to the hypostatic union, the two natures of Christ, the knowledge and obedience of Jesus, the passion and death of Christ, Christ's descent into hell, and the resurrection. In each of these sections, White provides excellent analysis and synthesis enabling the reader to understand how Thomas Aquinas might view them." - Catholic Library World "A masterful and coherent vindication of Aquinas's Christology in the context of the diverse claims of modern christologies The immense importance of this work lies principally in the fact that it can benefit not only Thomists, but anyone committed to serious theological reflection on the Scriptural witness to Jesus Christ." - New Blackfriars "A significant piece of systematic theology. White demonstrates his outstanding credentials as an interpreter of Thomas in particular and of the Catholic tradition as a whole, and makes for a useful dialogue partner for Protestant theologians who may find certain modern critiques less problematic than White, and who prefer to engage the deconstructive efforts of Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment thought by means other than the retrieval of another era." - Modern Theology "This ambitious and spirited book presents Thomist Christology as a universal panacea for a cluster of what its author takes to be debilitating weaknesses in recent Christology." - Theology "This closely reasoned and clearly written collection of essays presents an invaluable perspective upon many of the crucial issues debated in contemporary Christology. As one would expect, White shows an intimate familiarity with the thought of Aquinas. But he has also read carefully and deeply in modern and contemporary Christologies." - Theological Studies "Clear, receptive, unhurried, irenic, and encyclopedicuniquely valuable and pleasurable to read. White gives us a complete and definitive treatment of the issues concerned; his book will become the standard reference for decades to come." - The Heythrop Journal

Editorial Reviews


"this book would find its home in institutions providing gradute or post-graduate level work in the area of Catholic studies"--Garrett Trott, Catholic Library World
"It is an excellent contribution to recent work on the person and work of Christ, written in a clear, accessible styleWhite puts forward a constructive case for a modern Christology that is, indeed, heavily indebted to the Angelic Doctor, with whose work White is masterfully familiar."--Adonis Vidu, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, MA, Theological Studies
"This closely reasoned and clearly written collection of essays presents an invaluable perspective upon many of the crucial issues debated in contemporary Christology. As one would expect, White shows an intimate familiarity with the thought of Aquinas. But he has also read carefully and deeply in modern and contemporary Christologies. His knowledge of Schleiermacher and Barth, Rahner and Schillebeeckx, von Balthasar, Pannenberg, and Moltmann is impressive. The volume as a whole is exceptionally well-crafted... the book provides excellent material for a doctoral seminar in Christology, compelling both instructor and students to come to grips with their own positions and their spiritual and pastoral implications in this most crucial of theoligical disciplines."--Robert Imbelli, Boston College, Theological Studies
"This will become the textbook for courses on contemporary Christology for the forseeable future It is clear, receptive, unhurried, irenic, and encyclopedic [White] offers his readers an incisive account of these contrasting positions that makes his text uniquely valuable and pleasurable to read... White gives us a complete and definitive treatment of the issues concerned; his book will become the standard reference for decades to come."--Patrick Madigan, Heythrop Journal
"Fr. White, one of the brightest of a new generation of Thomas interpreters, explores a range of topics in this text. He is in fact putting his finger on a shift that has had a huge impact on the life of the post-conciliar Church."--Bishop Robert Barron, Word on Fire
"The Catholic Press Association deemed White's volume best theology book of the year. Garrigou-Lagrange would smile in approval."--William P. Loewe, CUA, Horizons: The Journal of the College Theology Society
"Thomas Joseph White's substantial volume sets forth ambitious goals in ten chapters framed with substantial introductory and concluding discussions Students and scholars of Thomas Aquinas, Scholastic Christology, modern theology, kenotic Christologies, and many others will find much of enduring value in this impressive monograph."--Corey L. Barnes, The Thomist
