Aquinas S: The"Summa Thelogica

The"Summa Thelogica

Die Anfänge Der Montes Pietatis, 1462-1515

'Immensely readable ... Lamb's assessment is cool and considered: a thoughtful overview of the conclave's fruit in Leo's first year, and the challenges he faces. The author's gifts for rendering complexity digestible are on full display: American Hope is the most thorough and insightful overview out there of the Church at the start of the Leonine era' - Austen Ivereigh, The Tablet 'Incisive ... American Hope combines background with predictions, lacing both together with a strong narrative and mastery of Vatican politics as well as theology ... The influence of Lamb's day job, as CNN's Vatican correspondent, can be seen here in the ease with which he places the Pope in a global context, not least in comparing him with US president Donald Trump and his VP, Catholic convert JD Vance' - Catherine Pepinster, Telegraph As white smoke signaled a new pope had been chosen on the evening of May 8, 2025, Robert Prevost went from being a relatively unknown cardinal to one of the most famous people on earth, the leader of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics. In electing Leo XIV, the College of Cardinals broke with conventional wisdom that there would never be an American pope. Is it a coincidence that he was chosen at a time of unprecedented political turbulence in the United States? Had the cardinals seen in him someone who would act as a spiritual counterweight to President Donald Trump?In American Hope CNN's Vatican correspondent Christopher Lamb explores what the election of Pope Leo means not just for the Catholic Church, but for the world. Drawing on his deep understanding of the Vatican and high-level access to cardinals and senior figures, Lamb paints a portrait of Leo as someone who combines an ability to unify with a steely determination to reform. He provides insights into the themes that will dominate Leo's papacy as the new pope steers a path between traditionalists and reformers.Leo is set to make a profound impact on the Church at a transformative moment in its history. In the era of "America First", the story of Leo's life and ministry asks what it truly means to be an American. In a world of conflict, he stands for peace. In a time of uncertainty, he offers a sense of hope.

The Church and Labor

In this book, Jean-Paul Coujou explores the historical evolution of international law from antiquity through modernity. He traces the development of the law of nations (ius gentium), beginning with Greek and Roman contributions, and examines its synthesis with natural law in Christian and Scholastic traditions. Coujou highlights the role of thinkers like Francisco de Vitoria, who transitioned the concept from individual relationships to the framework of international relations among states.This work underscores the historical necessity of reconciling natural law's universality with the practicalities of positive law, shaped by human consent and custom. The narrative also incorporates the emergence of foundational principles such as human rights, justice, and mutual assistance among nations, demonstrating how international law has been influenced by theological, legal, and philosophical ideas, particularly during the Second Scholastic period, with contributions from figures like Suárez and Aquinas.In this manner, Coujou provides a broader understanding of humanity as a universal community governed by shared legal and moral principles. He ultimately argues that international law serves as a mechanism for civilization, fostering unity, justice, and the moral improvement of humanity through cooperative legal development.

From the Law of Nations to the Emergence of International Law

The virtues of justice and charity are essential for addressing social and economic inequalities.In his encyclical letter Rerum Novarum, Pope Leo XIII takes up the condition of the working classes and the challenges facing the world following the Industrial Revolution, focusing on the relationship between labor and capital, the rights of workers, and the role of the Church in promoting justice. Promulgated in 1891, this foundational text has shaped Catholic social teaching and influenced more than a century of the Church's balanced approach to defending workers' rights while upholding the right to private property and rejecting socialism.Following the election of Robert Francis Prevost, who, as the 267th pope, took the name Leo XIV, there has been renewed interest in Rerum Novarum and the ways in which this groundbreaking encyclical may influence the pontificate of the first American pope. Just as Leo XIII spoke to a rapidly changing world in need of spiritual guidance and clear direction in this encyclical, today we face a world grappling with the life-changing effects of artificial intelligence and in desperate need of truth and charity.

Rerum Novarum

Contemporary Catholic environmentalism is at a crossroads, both theologically and politically. While the first half of the 20th century saw only fleeting references to environmental concerns in papal encyclicals, Pope John Paul II's 1990 New Year's Day address, later titled The Ecological Crisis, marked a pivotal shift. His stark warnings about the planet's mounting ecological challenges galvanized the Catholic theological community, prompting numerous regional bishops' statements that highlighted pressing local environmental issues. By the mid-1990s, Catholic environmentalism had evolved into a distinct theological discourse and a burgeoning political movement, attracting support from both church hierarchy and lay Catholics worldwide.


Despite Pope John Paul II's efforts to root Catholic environmental thought in the stewardship paradigm, his success in securing theological consensus was limited. While Pope Benedict XVI endorsed this model, many Catholic theologians and scholars voiced significant reservations. Some critiqued its vague theological underpinnings, others lamented its inherent anthropocentrism, and still others sought a broader scriptural foundation for environmental ethics. These critiques signaled a growing desire for an alternative framework.


With the publication of Laudato Si in 2015, Pope Francis ushered in a new era of Catholic environmentalism. His encyclical reaffirmed the theological and moral urgency of ecological issues while challenging humanity's unchecked technological optimism and deep-seated anthropocentrism. At the heart of his vision is the idea that all creation manifests divine love, calling Catholics to embrace a theocentric environmental ethic. This book builds upon Laudato Si, offering a fresh theological framework that moves beyond stewardship toward a more expansive, love-centered approach to creation care.

From Stewardship to Love in Laudato Si’

Catholic Environmentalism

Pope Francis suggests regarding all people as brothers and sisters. In that light, no human life is worthless. Acting on that conviction, individuals and societies must strive for the good of all, with special concern for those who are in need.

*Shortlisted for the 2026 Cundill History Prize* *Shortlisted for the 2026 An Post Irish Book Awards, Hodges Figgis History Book of the Year*When the gates of the last Magdalene Laundry closed in 1996, Ireland moved on. Or so it seemed. 'Enraging ... superb' JOHN BANVILLE, Guardian 'Remarkable' Sunday Times 'Groundbreaking' MICK CLIFFORD, Irish Examiner 'An extraordinary gift ... both an education and a page-turner' DOIREANN NÍ GHRÍOFA 'Powerful ... authoritative, passionate' Mail on SundayFollowing independence in 1922, Ireland began to chase a dream: to become the perfect Catholic nation. But purity had a price. Throughout the twentieth century, thousands of women and girls who did not conform - the wayward, the poor, the disabled, the abused - were sent to the Magdalene Laundries. Each was perceived to have fallen in some way. Once locked inside, their hair was shorn off, their names were erased - and then they were put to work. They washed, they scrubbed and they prayed, labouring in an attempt to salvage their souls.Published to coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the last Laundry's closure, The Fallen is the forgotten story of the Magdalene Laundries, told through the voices of the women who endured them, the nuns who presided over them and the communities that lived alongside them.Unflinching and compassionate, Louise Brangan draws on archives and survivors' testimonies to dismantle long-held myths about what the Laundries were, who was sent to these places of violence and secrecy, and why. As we move from the past into the present, Brangan compels us not only to confront this shameful history, but to ask a deeper question: what do we choose to remember?'Highly readable and intelligently engaging' FINTAN O'TOOLE, TLS 'Indispensable' ANNE ENRIGHT 'A terrific unearthing of Ireland's shadowland. A landmark book' RORY CARROLL 'Vivid, fluent and deeply compassionate' Irish Times*Winner of the 2024 Royal Society of Literature Giles St Aubyn Award*
