Sacraments in Aquinas, February 1- 3, 2007

With some exceptions, very little work has been done on Aquinas’s sacramental and liturgical theology in the past few decades.  In recent years, however, philosophical and theological interest in Aquinas’s sacramental theology and theological of the liturgy seems to be significantly increasing in ecumenical circles.  Now seems an auspicious time to plan for a conference that would illumine the contributions of Aquinas, and the medieval tradition to which he belongs, in this area.
