Abstract

The University of Munich’s department of theology was provisionally located in Fürstenried Castle, on the southern outskirts of Munich. Ratzinger was exposed there—and after its relocation in the city—to the teachings of four great local theological minds: Gottlieb Söhngen taught fundamental theology, Michael Schmaus taught dogmatics, Friedrich Wilhelm Maier taught New Testament, and Romano Guardini lectured on the Christian world-view. Parting ways with neoscholastic schemas, Schmaus attempted to reconstruct Thomistic dogmatics. Maier was one of the earliest Catholic scholars to embrace the hypothesis of a text “Q” (for “Quelle” in German, meaning “source”) and a collection of sayings (Logieti) stipulating that the synoptic gospels draw on unknown sources.1 The writings of Henri de Lubac from faraway Lyon in France supplied a sweeping, symphonic vision of faith.KeywordsChristian FaithNatural KnowledgeAnalogia EntisChristian LifeSummum BonumThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
