Thomas Aquinas’ Summa theologiae is one of the classics in the history of theology and philosophy. Beyond its influence in the Middle Ages, its importance is also borne out by the fact that it became the subject of commentary. During the sixteenth century it was gradually adopted as the official text for the teaching of scholastic theology in most European Catholic universities. As a result, university professors throughout Europe and the colonial Americas started lecturing and producing commentaries on the Summa and using it as a starting point for many theological and philosophical discussions. Some of the works of major authors such as Vitoria, Soto, Molina, Suárez and Arriaga are for all intents and purposes commentaries on the Summa. This book is the first scholarly endeavour to investigate this commentary tradition. As it examines late scholasticism against its institutional backdrop and contains studies of unpublished manuscripts and texts, it will remain an authoritative source for the research of late scholasticism.

This volume is the first complete critical edition of Peter of Auvergne?s 'Questiones super I-VII libros Politicorum'. The 'Questiones' was produced at the Faculty of Arts of Paris sometime between late 1291 and 1296 and is the earliest surviving commentary in question form on Aristotle?s 'Politics'. As the introduction explains, the 'Questiones' was philosophically innovative and became the most influential question-commentary on the 'Politics' in the Middle Ages. The volume also includes a critical edition of an earlier oral report (reportatio) of Peter?s teaching on Books I-II and part of III which became the basis for those sections of the 'Questiones'.0This volume is of interest to scholars of medieval philosophy and the history of political thought and is a reference point for future research on the medieval reception of Aristotle?s 'Politics' and medieval Aristotelian practical philosophy more broadly.
