importance of the Summa theologiae on
late scholasticism
Thomas Aquinas’ Summa theologiae is one of the classics
in the history of theology and philosophy. Beyond its influence in the Middle
Ages, its importance is also borne out by the fact that it became the subject
of commentary. During the sixteenth century it was gradually adopted as the official
text for the teaching of scholastic theology in most European Catholic
universities. As a result, university professors throughout Europe and the colonial
Americas started lecturing and producing commentaries on the Summa and using it as a starting point
for many theological and philosophical discussions. Some of the works of major
authors such as Vitoria, Soto, Molina, Suárez and Arriaga are for all intents and purposes commentaries on the Summa. This book
is the first scholarly endeavour to investigate this commentary tradition. As
it examines late scholasticism against its institutional backdrop and contains
studies of unpublished manuscripts and texts, it will remain an authoritative
source for the research of late scholasticism.
