The Summa Is Back In Print

Shawn Tribe at The New Liturgical Movement reports: Further signs of the times? The Summa back in print.

A portion of the publisher's reason is cited by TNLM:

"This paperback reissue of the classic Latin/English edition first published by the English Dominicans in the 1960s and 1970s... has been undertaken in response to regular requests from readers and librarians around the world for the entire series of 61 volumes to be made available again."

My copy is the five volume English version: St. Thomas Aquinas Summa Theologica (translated by Fathers of the English Dominican Province) (5 Volume Set) (Hardcover)

You can also read the Summa online here: Summa Theologica

Any thoughts?

[A Simple Sinner]

I am suprised it took so very long!

Of course there are any number of great out-of-print texts that are available online. Anymore I find I can download a lot of what I am looking for.

Thomism is enjoying a resurgence and there is a very simple reason for it: Those who are orthodox are enjoying a surge of vocations. Those who are not, are not.

Now if we could just get Fr. McBrien's "Catholicism" out of print....
