How can the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit be distinct and yet identical? Prompted by the doctrine of the divine Trinity, this question sparked centuries of lively debate. In the current context of renewed interest in Trinitarian theology, Russell L. Friedman provides the first survey of the scholastic discussion of the Trinity in the 100-year period stretching from Thomas Aquinas' earliest works to William Ockham's death. Tracing two central issues - the attempt to explain how the three persons are distinct from each other but identical as God, and the application to the Trinity of a 'psychological model', on which the Son is a mental word or concept, and the Holy Spirit is love - this volume offers a broad overview of Trinitarian thought in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, along with focused studies of the Trinitarian ideas of many of the period's most important theologians.

Dieu a choisi non seulement de parler la langue des hommes, mais aussi de se faire l’un d’entre eux. Pour s’adresser à l’humanité en sa condition réelle, Dieu a fait sienne la chair humaine, affectivité incluse. Le Dieu biblique est sujet d’émotions : jalousie, colère, regret, joie, etc. Pourtant, un Dieu incorporel paraît de soi inapte aux émotions. Ce Dieu émotif est-il simplement une projection humaine ? Le Dieu biblique tombe-t-il sous la critique ? Cet ouvrage trace un itinéraire anthropologique, littéraire et théologique. Pour interpréter les émotions de Dieu, il faut d’abord entrevoir la signification des émotions et des passions humaines. Il convient aussi d’explorer les scénarios bibliques dans lesquels interviennent les émotions de Dieu. Celles-ci deviennent alors les indices d’un engagement total. Amour, joie, espoir, colère, regret et tristesse sont ici envisagés de façon sémantique ou narrative, non seulement comme des notions à élucider, mais aussi comme les traits d’un Dieu en action.

'Can God Be Free?' studies a central philosophical problem of religion: can it be right to regard God as free, and as praiseworthy for being perfectly good? The author questions this idea and proposes the need for some substantive revision in contemporary thinking about the nature of God.
