Thomas and the Mendicant Controversies: a new printing of English translations

/

A somewhat self-serving post. Over on my personal web site I have a post about a forthcoming book that contains hard-to-find English translations of Thomas’s three works devoted to the mendicant controversies at the University of Paris (from 1256-1271). I did not do the translations, but did write a general overview of the controversies and short introductions to each work (i.e., Contra impugnantes dei cultum et religionem [1256], De perfectione spiritualis vitae [1269-1270], and Contra doctrinam retrahentium a religione, [1271-1272]).
