Examines the works of Paris theologians to show how they dealt with the questions of human pain and suffering. Questions of pain and suffering occur frequently in medieval theological debate. Here, Dr Mowbray examines the innovative views of Paris's masters of theology in the thirteenth century, illuminating how they constructed notions ofpain and suffering by building a standard terminology and conceptual framework. Such issues as the Passion of Christ, penitential suffering, suffering and gender, the fate of unbaptized children, and the pain and suffering of souls and resurrected bodies in hell are all considered, to demonstrate how the masters established a clear and precise consensus for their explanations of the human condition. DONALD MOWBRAY gained his PhD from the University of Bristol.
"Has much to contribute to the broad theme of suffering in later medieval culture." - CHURCH HISTORY
"Comprehensive and... addresses some of the knottiest problems of medieval theology. [...] All students of medieval religion will be very much in Mowbray's debt for his final perseverance in producing this excellent and highly informative book." - ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW
"A useful survey of the terrain that puts the reader in the position to make further investigation." - CATHOLIC HISTORICAL REVIEW
"A respectable introductory monograph to the rather understudied subject of medieval conceptualizations of pain experience." - SPECULUM
"This is a useful gathering together of the themes of medieval discussion of pain and suffering with special reference to the debates among the theologians at Paris in the thirteenth century. It is new work in a number of respects. The topic has not been systematically discussed in quite this way before. The discussion is comprehensively underpinned by footnotes giving extensive quotations from the source-texts, which include materials still available only in manuscript." - JOURNAL OF THEOLOGICAL STUDIES
"Admirably maps out how theologians at the University of Paris developed a nuanced typology of pain and suffering. [...] Mowbray helps his reader better understand how these theologians argued in general, and presents us with a compelling case for the centrality of suffering in the thinking of thirteenth century intellectuals." - THE MEDIEVAL REVIEW
