Main themes These objectives will be achieved after a presentation of the cararcteristic axes of monastic and scolastic theologies. The birth, the main theologians of the XII century and the important syntheses of the scolastic theology will be studied with some indications on the latse scolastic and the heterodox doctines.
Aims At the end of this activity, the student will be able to - make the difference between various types of theology practised in the Middel Ages (methods; sources; literary genres; historical, cultural, institutional contexts). - use the main tools in the field and deepen a specific question in a personal research.
Content In 2009-2010 the course will deal with the question of Christ's knowledge. How have theologians reconciled the fact that Christ is a man and experiences a progress in his knowledge and the fact that he has a divine nature and is thereby blessed with an omniscience commanding unreserved belief in his testimony? How are we to understand the medieval thesis that Christ enjoyed the vision beatific as of his conception? The course will pass in review the major milestones in medieval reflection on the subject and propose contemporary paths for reflection on an important Christological problematic that is all too often left on the sidelines nowadays.
