Description

Book Synopsis
Examines the appropriation of Thomas Aquinas's understanding of providence by a fifteenth-century Greek Orthodox theologian, Gennadios Scholarios. Matthew Briel investigates the intersection of Aquinas's theology, the legacy of Greek patristic and theological traditions, and the use of Aristotle's philosophy by Latin and Greek Christian thinkers.

Trade Review

“A Greek Thomist has significant implications not only for the study of the Byzantine reception of Aquinas but also for the scholarly understanding of Thomas himself (not least with regard to Thomas’s own Greek patristic inheritance). Matthew Briel handles his sources well—with balance, linguistic expertise, and theological precision.” —Marcus Plested, author of Orthodox Readings of Aquinas


"This beautifully written and persuasively argued book is a splendid achievement for a young scholar’s first monograph-length contribution to a complex field of studies." —Journal of Orthodox Christian Studies
