This volume contains the first publication in book form of an English
translation of Thomas Aquinas’s controversial disputed question De
unione Verbi incarnati. This disputed question is a remarkable
portal into the Angelic Doctor’s theology of the hypostatic union, which
is recognized as an area in which Aquinas forged some of his most
original and penetrating articulations of the Christian faith. In the De
unione Verbi incarnati Aquinas presents in five articles material
that occupies more than eighteen questions in the third part of the Summa
theologiae. The attribution of an esse secundarium to Christ,
in the fourth article of the De unione, has been the object of
intense debate, for it seems to contradict the account of the Summa.
In addition to Professor Nutt’s English translation, the volume includes
the critical Latin text published by Barbara Bartocci, Klaus Obenauer,
and Walter Senner, as well as a substantial introduction. Professor
Nutt’s introduction carefully unfolds the historical background,
technical concepts, sources, and speculative claims needed for
understanding the breadth of the biblical and metaphysical contemplation
represented in this work; it also includes a detailed exploration of the
debate over the fourth article.
