Humanism and Theology: Aquinas Lecture No. 7 is a book written by Werner Wilhelm Jaeger, a renowned German classicist and historian of ancient philosophy. The book is a transcript of Jaeger's seventh lecture in the Aquinas Lecture series, which he delivered at Marquette University in 1947.In this lecture, Jaeger explores the relationship between humanism and theology, two seemingly disparate fields of study. He argues that humanism and theology are not mutually exclusive, but rather complementary, and that the study of the humanities can enrich our understanding of theology.Jaeger draws on the works of ancient Greek philosophers, particularly Plato and Aristotle, to illustrate the humanistic roots of theology. He also examines the role of Christianity in the development of humanism, and how the Renaissance humanists sought to reconcile humanism and theology.Throughout the book, Jaeger emphasizes the importance of a humanistic approach to theology, one that values reason, critical thinking, and the pursuit of knowledge. He argues that such an approach can lead to a deeper understanding of the divine and a more meaningful spiritual life.Overall, Humanism and Theology: Aquinas Lecture No. 7 is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between two important fields of study, and a compelling argument for the value of a humanistic approach to theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
