Reconfiguring Thomistic Christology

  • In this book, Matthew Levering unites eschatologically charged biblical Christology with metaphysical and dogmatic Thomistic Christology, by highlighting the typological Christologies shared by Scripture, the Church Fathers, and Aquinas. Like the Church Fathers, Aquinas often reflected upon Jesus in typological terms (especially in his biblical commentaries), just as the New Testament does. Showing the connections between New Testament, Patristic, and Aquinas' own typological portraits of Jesus, Levering reveals how the eschatological Jesus of biblical scholarship can be integrated with Thomistic Christology. His study produces a fully contemporary Thomistic Christology that unites ressourcement and Thomistic modes of theological inquiry, thereby bridging two schools of contemporary theology that too often are imagined as rivals. Levering's book reflects and augments the current resurgence of Thomistic Christology as an ecumenical project of relevance to all Christians.

  • Summary

    This concluding chapter naturally considers the long-term impact of the image of Keynes that has been suggested in the substantive chapters. It thus confirms the view that ‘Pragmatic Keynesianism’ had obvious traction in situations where practical expedients are sought in face of economic problems. But it also suggests that ‘Dogmatic Keynesianism’ has insights that can be applied (in a more theoretical sense) in understanding the workings of the economy, with reference to the rival theories of especially Schumpeter, Hayek and Friedman. The abiding concern that Keynes showed with the concepts of probability and uncertainty is highlighted; but also, in a methodological frame, the conclusion identifies intractable reasons why individual economic rationality cannot be relied upon to rescue us. Above all, this is a book that appeals to the historical record in offering us insights on the unique career path of a figure who was rather more than today’s conception of a professional economist.
