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.

On Thursday, February 13th (at the Gregorian University), and Friday, February 14th, 2025, (at the University of the Holy Cross) the International Conference entitled "Sacred Buildings and Artists: Assessments and Prospects" will take place, marking the 25th anniversary of the first Jubilee of Artists. Organized by the Institute of Liturgy of the University of the Holy Cross, in collaboration with the Pontifical Gregorian University and with the patronage of the Dicastery for Evangelization, the event aims to reflect on how the invitation of Pope Saint John Paul II, aimed at renewing the alliance between the Church and artists, expressed in the Letter to Artists of April 4, 1999, has been understood, received, and embraced. An invitation that echoes the call already made by Pope Saint Paul VI in the Homily delivered during the Mass of Artists on May 7, 1964, and that finds continuity in his Successors, Benedict XVI (Address, November 21, 2009) and Francis (Address, June 23, 2023).

The academic community mourns the passing of Prof. Álvaro Granados, former lecturer in Pastoral Theology, Sacramental Theology, and, for several years, Secretary of the ISSR at the Apollinare, who passed away today, Friday, January 24, 2025, after a long battle with illness.

"His kindness and patience throughout his illness will remain a profound example of great faith and hope for the entire academic community," said the University’s Rector, Rev. Prof. Fernando Puig. "We are confident that from Heaven he will continue to pray for the University and for all the people who, over his many years in Rome, came to know and appreciate him as a priest and as a professor."

From Monday, January 20, to Sunday, February 16, 2025, students from all Schools can complete the online evaluation questionnaire for the First Semester Courses.

This is a valuable opportunity to contribute to improving the quality of teaching and education.
