"Christ Among the Medieval Dominicans provides a comprehensive and detailed look at the position of Christ in Dominican thought, life and practice in the medieval period. It is a multi-faceted window on a period and movement of considerable significance." —The Art Book"The wide range and generally high quality of the contributions makes this an important and stimulating collection." —The Heythrop Journal"This volume helps the modern reader to correct some widely held misconceptions about medieval Dominicans. Emery and Wawrykow's work admirably suceeds in accomplishing its goal of shedding new light on old, but central, topics of concern for medieval studies." —Church HIstory, Studies in Christianity & Culture"(This volume) is a high-quality collection of rare breadth . . . The collection provides a vast overview of medieval Dominican Christology which manifests, in spite of the differences, the profound continuity of theological and spiritual reflection in the Order of the Preachers. But the first merit of this book is to recall that the Dominicans, before doing philosophy, have been primarily theologians searching to accont for the heart of their faith: the person of Christ. These studies thus contribute to rediscover the specifically theological matter of the Dominican tradition, which the philosophical enterprise of twentieth-century neo-Scholasticism has sometimes obscured." —The Thomist"This collection of conference papers deals with the way Christ was portrayed in the art and writings of the medieval Dominicans and those who were influenced by them. Most of the papers are in English, though three are in French. The papers deal with the order as a whole and with individual writers such as Stephen Langton, Mechthild of Magdeburg, Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and others. The essayists, however, examine a wide range of themes, including catechists, marriage, medieval philosophy, and the way Dominic himself was remembered and compared to Christ, among others. The goal of the essayists was to examine the way the Dominicans perceived Christ and then to examine how that perception influenced their work. This book would be an excellent addition to academic, research, and especially theological libraries." —Library Journal
