Introduction to the Works of Bonaventure

by Jacques-Guy Bougerol

Summary

A French Franciscan scholar and eminent Franciscan authority, Father J. Guy Bougerol, provides a major key to the understanding of the Works of Bonaventure. Here, in language that is learned but never unclear, he offers an exposition of the time in which Bonaventure lived, the cultural currents that influenced him, and the particular circumstances in which each of his works originated. This informed and detailed interpretation is indispensable to the student in the Franciscan field, and the reader interested in the striking relation between Bonaventurian thought and the most advanced present day theology.
