| Summary: | Maynooth Seminary has hosted seven international symposia on patristics, each with a unique theme, and these have resulted in a series of excellent publications. Salvation according to the Fathers of the Church is the sixth such publication, being the proceedings of a conference that took place in 2005. Editor D. Vincent Twomey has assembled an interesting and eclectic group of essays covering a broad array of patristic theologians, assessing their unique perspectives on the meaning, value, and scope of salvation. While ‘salvation’ seems an obvious theme around which to centre a group of patristic studies—given that the Fathers were fundamentally concerned with it—very often, though, ‘salvation’ is treated as something ancillary to Christology, trinitarian theology, or other topics. |
