The authors

Father Agostino Selva and Father Tito S. Centi of the Dominican order are members of the Ateneo Domenicano of Bologna and responsible for the publication in Italian of all the works of Saint Thomas Aquinas. Father Centi has already edited the Somma contro i Gentili for the Classici delle religioni series.

 

The publication

The volume includes the Compendio di teologia and three apologies on religious life: Contro gli avversari del culto di Dio e della vita religiosa, La perfezione della vita spirituale e Contro la dottrina di quanti distolgono dalla vita religiosa. The Compendium Theologiae is the summary of the Catholic faith written by Saint Thomas Aquinas with the intention of making all the fundamentals of Christian faith, hope and charity accessible. The text, which constitutes an important stage in the history of catechesis, is a marvellous example of how Thomas combined faith and reason.
