| Summary: | Russell Friedman’sMedieval Trinitarian Thought from Aquinas to Ockham, which derives from lectures given in Paris, is a welcome addition not only to contemporary literature on medieval trinitarian theology but also to our understanding of the relation between faith and reason in the fourteenth century. Medieval Trinitarian Thought is a general survey of the ‘Dominican’ tradition and the ‘Franciscan’ tradition from 1250 to 1350. This division is based on different explanatory orders of the distinction of divine persons, and not whether a theologian was a Dominican or Franciscan. The ‘Dominican’ view, articulated by Aquinas, has the explanatory order like this: opposed relation (e.g. paternity, filiation), person (e.g. Father, Son), and then emanation (e.g. generation, generated). |
