It was the subject of more commentaries than any other work of Christian literature besides the Bible itself. The \u003cem\u003eBook of Sentences\u003c\/em\u003e is essentially a compilation of older sources, from the Scriptures and Augustine down to several of the Lombard's contemporaries, such as Hugh of Saint Victor and Peter Abelard. Its importance lies in the Lombard's organization of the theological material, his method of presentation, and the way in which he shaped doctrine in several major areas. Despite his importance, however, there is no accessible introduction to Peter Lombard's life and thought available in any modern language. This volume fills this considerable gap. Philipp W. Rosemann begins by demonstrating how the \u003cem\u003eBook of Sentences\u003c\/em\u003e grew out of a long tradition of Christian reflection-a tradition, ultimately\u003cbr\u003erooted in Scripture, which by the twelfth century had become ready to transform itself into a theological system. Turning to the \u003cem\u003eSentences\u003c\/em\u003e, Rosemann then offers a brief exposition of the Lombard's life and work. He proceeds to a book-by-book examination and interpretation of its main topics, including the nature and attributes of God, the Trinity, creation, angelology, human nature and the Fall, original sin, Christology, ethics, and the sacraments. He concludes by exploring how the \u003cem\u003eSentences\u003c\/em\u003e helped shape the further development of the Christian tradition, from the twelfth century through the time of Martin Luther.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhilipp W.
