| Summary: | The "phenomenological practice of medieval philosophy" actualizes its relevance. This method, undertaken substantially in the author's God, the Flesh, and the Other: From Irenaeus to Duns Scotus (2015) finds its full justification here. The fruitfulness of a method is not found in its theorization, but in its practical application. An examination of authors as diverse as St. Augustine, John Scotus Eriugena, and Meister Eckhart (for "God"), Sts. Irenaeus, Tertullian, and Bonaventure (for the "flesh"), and Origen, Thomas Aquinas, and Duns Scotus (for the "other"), actualizes the relevance of medieval philosophy - an actualization of relevance understood in the first place as the realization of these thinkers' "potentialities" (actualitas). |
