Christian Justice and Human Society 6. Fortitude and the Courage of Christ 7. Christian Moderation and TemperenceReviewsFor close to fifteen years now, moral theologians have benefited from the prolific work of Fr. Romanus Cessario in the area of moral theology. While churning out first-rate books and articles at a rapid pace, his expertise as a former teacher of dogmatic theology is evident in all of his work-and the present book under review, The Virtues, or the Examined Life, is no exception [A]dd Cessarios's retrieval of the Thomistic moral tradition in The Virtues to a growing list of superb Thomistically-inspired works of moral theology in English. It will serve as a breath of fresh air for those used to a legalistic moral theology framed in categories of law obligation. -Mark S. Latkovic, Josephinum Journal of Theology While the author of this handbook of Catholic theology addresses the virtues from a traditional perspective, the book offers very little to the contemporary debate on 'virtue, ' 'justice' and 'duty.' --Catholic Library World, December 2002 Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
