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.

From April 27 to 28, 2026 (9:30 AM, Giovanni Paolo II Lecture Hall), the C.S. Lewis Conference: Saying Man, Saying God will be held, organized by the International Study Forum "Poetics & Christianity" of the School of Communication in collaboration with the School of Theology.

The event aims to explore the thought and legacy of one of the most influential intellectuals of the 20th century. A philologist, theologian, writer, and essayist, author of the famous Chronicles of Narnia, Lewis deeply and clearly addressed the relationship between reason and faith, the meaning of human existence, and the role of storytelling in the search for truth.

On Friday, May 29, 2026 (5:00 PM, Benedict XVI Lecture Hall), His Excellency Monsignor Paul Richard Gallagher, Secretary for Relations with States and International Organizations of the Vatican Secretariat of State, will give a lecture titled Forgiveness and International Relations, organized by the Christianity and Society Center of the School of Theology.

In the current historical and geopolitical context, the event offers a reflection on the role of forgiveness in international relations, understood as the ethical and Christian foundation of social and diplomatic life. The initiative, primarily aimed at the diplomatic corps at the Holy See but open to all interested parties, seeks to foster dialogue between scholars of social theology and experts from the professional world.

Friday, March 20 and Saturday, March 21, 2026 (3:00 PM, Benedict XVI Hall), the Joan Baptista Torelló Research Group, in collaboration with the ROR Group, organized the second edition of the Course on the Emotional Regulation of the Spiritual Accompanier.

The activity aimed to provide participants with certain psychological skills that helped them practice spiritual accompaniment in a way that was enriching both for the person being accompanied and for the accompanier.
