Summa Theologica
Mantua, Italy, c 1475
In medieval Italy and France, Dominican monk Thomas Aquinas wrote "Summa Theologica," a masterpiece that fused philosophy and theology. It quickly was recognized as a compelling and influential treatise. Even before the development of the printing press in Europe, "Summa Theologica" had been translated into Armenian, Greek and Middle High German. This Latin edition was published just 20 years after the first European printing press came into use. |
