FIP releases second edition of 'The Harmony of Goodness: Mutuality and Moral Living According to John Duns Scotus

Jul 11, 2012 | Franciscan Institute Publication logoST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — Franciscan Institute Publications announces the release of The Harmony of Goodness: Mutuality and Moral Living According to John Duns Scotus (Revised, Second Edition) by Mary Beth Ingham, C.S.J. 

Since the first publication of The Harmony of Goodness: Mutuality and Moral Living According to John Duns Scotus in 1996, much work has appeared in print on Scotus’ theological and philosophical vision including the gradual completion of the Vatican edition of Scotus’ Ordinatio. Various congresses and international gatherings continue to highlight the important significance of this great medieval thinker for the new millennium. Ingham draws upon the work of several significant scholars combining her own deepened conviction that understanding Scotus’ moral philosophy and theology must be understood within the broader context of Franciscan spirituality including the role of Stoic and monastic influences on the medieval Franciscans. Scotus’ articulation of a moral vision to lived harmony and to moral living as a path of beauty is offered anew by Ingham in this major revision of her work. The Harmony of Goodness book

“Mary Beth Ingham’s The Harmony of Goodness offers a finely tuned study of John Dun Scotus marked by clarity and conviction. No one is more adept and accomplished than Ingham when it comes to exploring, articulating, and retrieving the intricate thought of the Subtle Doctor for contemporary readers. In The Harmony of Goodness, she provides a compelling ethical worldview that is grounded in the Franciscan belief in the goodness of both the Creator and Creation, and the invitation to live accordingly,” said Dr. Timothy Johnson, Professor and Department Chair of Humanities at Flagler College. 

Sr. Mary Elizabeth Ingham, C.S.J., is Professor of Philosophical Theology at the Franciscan School of Theology, Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, California. She earned her Ph.D. from Universite de Fribourg, Switzerland. Her specialties include the History of Medieval Philosophy, Franciscan Tradition, John Duns Scotus, Stoicism and its influence on Medieval Philosophy, and Franciscan spiritual tradition and its influence on Scotus and others. Ingham has authored several texts on Scotus including the best-selling "Scotus for Dunces – an Introduction to the Subtle Doctor."

Books can be ordered from amazon.com, bn.com or from the Franciscan Institute Publications website at www.franciscanpublications.com.
