SY412 SY413 SY422 SY429 SY433 TOPICS IN CHRISTOLOGY (CHR) This course will focus on four topics especially: the role of historical criticism of the New Testament for resolving the tension between the Jesus of history and the Christ of faith; the legacy of the Council of Chalcedon for later Christology; the role of Christ’s beatific vision in the Christology of St. Thomas Aquinas; and the debate over Christology and pluralism, that is, the relation of the founders of other world religions to Christ. Other topics, though, will be allowed as research topics for the students’ final term paper, depending on their interest. (Canonical) Oakes F RAHNER’S FOUNDATION OF CHRISTIAN FAITH (CHR) This course is a guided tour through Karl Rahner’s masterful attempt to integrate all the Christian theology by exploring notions of transcendence, uncreated grace, the human existential, revelation and the understanding, ascending Christology and anonymous Christian. This is done with a constant pastoral orientation. (Canonical) Meyer F PRIESTHOOD AND MINISTRY: YESTERDAY AND TODAY This course will examine the following issues: the diocesan priesthood before the council of Trent; secular involvement; distinctive lifestyle; typical ministries; the priestly charism; institutionalization; theories of essential role; women as priests; role professional knowledge and apostolate, and the priest as mystagogue. (HI422) Meyer S NCTI FALL SEMINAR: GLOBAL THEOLOGIES Globalization has produced an increased encounter between different cultures and religions. These encounters have brought new questions to theology which have never before been asked. The questions challenge Christian theologians to think anew about the basic doctrines of the Faith. The Fall NCTI seminar will explore some of the dimensions of theology that have been opened by globalization, such as “Christology: Christ as Healer and Ancestor in Africa,” “Anthropology: Human Identity in Shame-Based Cultures of the Far East,” and “Pneumatology: The Holy Spirit in Latin American Pentecostalism.” Discussion of these topics will be led by the diverse faculty of NCTI and ACTS and will seek to include a variety of perspectives: Roman Catholic and Protestant, Ecumenical and Evangelical. Special attention will be paid to how these questions present challenges to evangelism, apologetics and ecumenism. Baima & NCTI Staff F APOLOGETICS “Apologetics” comes from the Greek word for “defense speech,” as when a defendant in a trial would defend himself against the charges filed against him. Because the Christian religion was attacked early on by the Roman authorities and by pagan writers, some of the earliest examples of theology inevitably took on the form of these defense speeches. Indeed, the Christian theologians of the second century are generally now called “the Apologists.” Because the Catholic religion is today also attacked from many quarters, from secularists for its belief in the supernatural, from Muslims and Jews for its belief in the Trinity, from Protestants for its allegedly “non-biblical” doctrines of Mary’s Immaculate Conception and Assumption and for its definition of papal infallibility, apologetics is at least as necessary today as it was in the past. This course will look at the history of apologetics but concentrate above all on current attempts to defend and justify the Catholic religion against all comers. Oakes S 76
SY436 SY437 SY445 THE EXPERIENCE OF THE TRIUNE GOD: THE THEOLOGY OF FR. DUMITRU STĂNILOAE (CHR) This course surveys the theology and spirituality of Fr. Dumitru Stăniloae (1903- 1993). Arguing against any reduction of the human spirit, such as Nationalism and Communism, and surviving Communist imprisonment, Stăniloae develops an original, systematic presentation of Orthodox dogmatics and integrates a rich spirituality into his vast œuvre: the God-man Jesus Christ enables our participation in triune life already in the here and now. Along with Karl Rahner and Karl Barth, this Romanian thinker is considered one of the towering figures of 20th century theology. This course may be found appealing by those interested in spirituality, patristics and Orthodox systematic theology and the integration and reciprocal interpenetration of the same. (Canonical, Christology, Spirituality) de Gaál F THE MYSTERY OF THE HUMAN PERSON “The truth is that it is only in the mystery of Christ that the mystery of the human person is manifested.” (Gaudium et spes) This course will explore contemporary theological anthropology in light of revelation and Catholic theology. (Canonical) Norris S THE EUCHARIST AND THE CHURCH This course will examine the important relationship between Eucharistic theology and ecclesiology, focusing on the notion of the Body of Christ. We will consider the Pauline teaching on the sacrament of Christ’s Body and the Church as Christ’s mystical body. The encyclical letters of Pope Pius XII, Mystici Corporis and Mediator Dei, will be carefully studied. The theological insights of Henri de Lubac, John Zizioulas, Paul McPartlan and Pope John Paul II with regard to this theme. (Canonical) Kunkel F SY448 THE EUCHARIST AS SACRAMENT AND SACRIFICE IN ROMAN CATHOLIC TRADITION An investigation into Eucharist doctrine: in Scripture; the great controversies; real presence; transubstantiation; sacramental matter and form, minister, recipient and effects; the idea of sacrifice; the Eucharist and the Cross; the double consecration; epiclesis; the essence and effects of the sacrifice. (Canonical) Meyer W SY450 SY452 THE ORIGINALITY OF HANS URS VON BALTHASAR This course will explore the original insights of Balthasar. In particular, it will focus on the areas of drama (witnessing to the Faith), aesthetics (proposing the Faith) and logic (engaging in the dialogue of Faith). The course will also explore the implications of his manner of articulating revelation in view of our personal growth in faith (fides qua) and our mission to communicate that faith (fides quae) as good news for the secular world. (Canonical) Norris F THOMAS AQUINAS AND THE DOCTRINE OF GOD The idea of God entertained by many people to whom the priest must minister is one derived ultimately from the teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas. After reading sections for the Prima Pars of the Summa as well as other works of the Angelic Doctor, we will discuss his doctrine with a new view to acculturating it in the world in which we live.
