School of Theology

Teologia

In the context of the pluralism of modern cultures, the School of Theology offers a program of formation marked by a strong Christocentrism, an orientation based on the conviction that a deep knowledge of the mystery of Christ is the perennial foundation for the transformation of human beings and the world.

The School’s formative agenda in both the educational and research levels is translated into the following choices of method and content:

  • A presentation of the intrinsic connection between the revealed truths as expression of the mystery of the Trinity and of its communication of love in Christ;
     
  • The mystery of the whole Christ, Head and Body, as the deep foundation of the essentially ecclesial character of any theological reflection–communion with the Church, with her doctrine, tradition, liturgy etc., is a necessary premise to any pursuit of theological knowledge of Revelation;
     
  • The intimate connection between the divinity and humanity of Christ as the light by which one understands the relation between faith and reason, both in theology and in one’s worldview, consequently deepening the meaning of created realities and their autonomy, and giving rise to a spirit of openness to a peaceful encounter with the natural, historical and social sciences;
     
  • The call to holiness, rooted in Baptism, and further diversified according to the various charisms and vocations in the Church, as a background to a more coherent vision of the theological and ethical dimensions of Christian existence.
     
  • Il lavoro della Facoltà si struttura in base ad un Istituto di Liturgia e a cinque Specializzazioni:  Teologia dogmatica, Teologia morale, Teologia spirituale, Teologia biblica e Storia della Chiesa.

In evidenza

On Friday, March 15th (from 3 pm to 6 pm) and Saturday, March 16th, 2024 (from 9 am to 12:30 pm) in Room A305, the Joan Baptista Torelló Research Group, in collaboration with the ROR Group, has organized a Course on the Emotional Regulation of the Spiritual Companion. The activity aims to provide participants with some psychological skills that will help them to engage in spiritual companionship in an enriching way, both for the accompanied person and for the companion themselves.

On Saturday, March 9, 2024 (at 4:00 PM, Álvaro del Portillo Hall), the "liber amicorum" dedicated to Prof. Johannes Grohe on the occasion of his 70th birthday was presented.

The text was written with contributions from friends, colleagues from Santa Croce, the Society for Historical Research of Councils, and the RIGG (Roman Institute of the Görres Society), of which the professor is Vice Director.

Prof. Grohe will return to Germany in the fall, after 27 years of teaching Medieval Church History at our University.
