Reviews

'Ruben Angelici has used the Sources chretiennes Latin text of G. Salet, and has provided an extensive introduction and commentary. [...] He has endeavoured to offer 'as literal a translation... as possible, without appearing pedantic.' An English translation has long been needed and the present version is welcome for that reason.' G. R. Evans in Journal of Theological Studies, Vol. 63 (2), October 2012. '[Richard of St Victor's] writing is assured as he sets out an ambitious and systematic statement of why we affirm the nature of God as Trinity. [...] Scholars of this period will be grateful for the first English translation of this important work, while those less familiar with it will find that it helps them to enter into the thinking and culture of a different age.' The Revd Dr John Binns, Church Times, 21/28 December, 2012
