What Is Theology in the Middle Ages? presents papers delivered at the conference with the same title held in Warsaw (23rd-26th June, 2004) and organized by IGTM in collaboration with the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology (Polish Academy of Sciences) and the Warsaw Thomistic Institute. The volume consists of two parts. The first contains texts dealing with purely theological problems. They concentrate mostly on the self-understanding of the medieval theology as perceived by its most eminent proponents, as e. g. Anselm of Canterbury, Richard of St Victor, Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, Henry of Ghent and Nicolas of Cues. The second one, consisting of 16 articles, explores the boundaries of the history of theology and other disciplines, namely the history of liturgy, of canon law and of the fine arts. All the materials combine the analysis of historical sources with critical reflection on the ways in which medieval theology is understood and evaluated nowadays. All articles have been written by scholars from leading academic centers from all over the Europe. Texts are in German, English and French
