Description
Book SynopsisA new translation of St. Thomas Aquinas's classic treatise provides a clear and accessible exploration of the theological virtue of faith.
Trade Review"Jordan's translation of the treatise on faith meets an important need. . . . The notes and index of authoritative sources . . . help the student appreciate how much Aquinas depended on his theological and cultural forerunners. [Jordan's] brief introduction to each 'key authority': Scripture, Augustine, Pseudo-Dionysius, Gregory the Great . . . provides the essentials which a beginner in medieval studies requires to read Aquinas's own text intelligently. . . . Those who teach the theological virtues will welcome this volume as a textbook for classroom use." —The Thomist
"By avoiding the obscure Latinate English that plagues other translations and, instead, rendering Thomas into felicitous English with due attention to the sources, Jordan's translation well reflects the accessibility of the original." —Review of Metaphysics
