Medieval Essays

Philosophy

“"This is too small a collection of Gilson's essays. Why? In reading his article on St. Anselm, who died in 1109, I learned more about fourteenth-century philosophy and theology than from most works on that era itself. From Gilson's inaugural lecture at the Sorbonne, we all could discover what it is to be gracious toward those who taught us. In essence, these essays lead to a richer understanding of the nature of history, philosophy, and theology, and also of the life of a scholar.”

Studies in Medieval Philosophy

Philosophy

“Etienne Gilson is James Colbert's favorite author and his continued translations of Gilson’s essays are deeply sensitive to his many medieval philosophical accounts and undeniably accurate in representing them. Colbert’s work is outstanding.”

Wisdom and the Renewal of Catholic Theology

Theology

“This collection of essays honoring Father Matthew Lamb is a most suitable indication of his theological achievement at Ave Maria University. He initiated a solid theological MA and PhD program in 2004. All of its graduates have attained teaching positions at seminaries and universities, and now we have in these essays the early evidence of the effective training of these young theologians as scholars. This volume is a wonderful tribute.”
