Sobre este artículo
Pontifical Inst of Medieval, December 1993. Paper Back. New. Etienne Gilson hardly needs introduction. The invaluable body of work he has produced on the history of theology, the relation of faith to philosophy, and on particular Christian philosophers and theologians, makes his importance self-evident. Therefore appearances of translations of his work are always welcome, and this particular text gets to the heart of his lifelong concern: the validity of the notion of Christian philosophy. In his own words: ''The theology of a theologian worthy of the name cannot be anything but the very movement of his mind and love as he seeks the truth about God in the teaching of sacred scripture and in the study of his creatures...the writer who reports them has never been able to reread them without having the impression of their leading him as close to God as is possible for a human mind to approach him while meditating on the meaning of his word. My only desire is to share that experience with others. It will never be a question of demonstrating, but only of showing, leaving each reader the task of finding his own way and trying in his own fashion to approach the sublime mysteries whose neglect would be the death of metaphysics as well as of theology, and whose meditation, in the humility of love, is a work of piety no less than of wisdom.'' Amen. 139 pp.
