Studies in Sentence Commentaries on the Eighth Centenary of 黑尔斯的亚历山大’s Lectures

从1223到1227, 黑尔斯的亚历山大, Regent Master in Theology at the University of Paris, delivered his magisterial morning lectures based not on the traditional material — Sacred Scripture — but rather on Peter Lombard’s Sentences. This innovation changed the study of theology in European universities for the next several centuries.
Until the time of the Reformation (和 considerably beyond it in some places), the Sentences would retain its place as the most important textbook for advanced study of theology 和 philosophy in the Latin language. 亚历山大随后加入了方济各会, giving the 弗朗西斯can Friars a permanent place within the University of Paris theology faculty 和 a share in the common scholastic culture that included commenting on the Sentences.
On the eighth centenary of his groundbreaking Gloss on the Sentences, this conference will address this theme highlighting the genre of the Sentence commentary as a key locus for the h和ing on (tradere) of theological tradition, 学说的发展, 和 theological 和 philosophical debate in medieval 和 early modern intellectual culture.
这次会议将在圣保罗举行. Bonaventure, New York, on the beautiful campus of St. 博纳旺蒂尔大学. 它将包括博士的主题演讲. 菲利普·W. Rosemann, chair of Catholic Studies at the University of Kentucky, 和 Dr. 克里斯汀·赫尔默, professor of German at Northwestern University.
