Description
The work published in this third, and final, volume of Brill's handbook on the tradition of the Book of Sentences breaks new ground in three ways. First, several chapters contribute to the debate concerning the meaning of medieval authority and authorship. For some of the most influential literature on the Sentences consisted of study aids and compilations that were derivative or circulated anonymously. Consequently, the volume also sheds light on theological education "on the ground"-the kind of teaching that was dispensed by the average master and received by the average student. Finally, the contributors show that Peter Lombard's textbook played a much more dynamic role in later medieval theology than hitherto assumed. The work remained a force to be reckoned with until at least the sixteenth century, especially in the Iberian Peninsula.
Contributors are Claire Angotti, Monica Brinzei, Franklin T. Harkins, Severin V. Kitanov, Lidia Lanza, Philipp W. Rosemann, Chris Schabel, John T. Slotemaker, Marco Toste, Jeffrey C. Witt, and Ueli Zahnd.

Reviews / Votes
"[Each of the three avenues of the volume] makes a decisive contribution to the history of this subject ... This volume dedicated to Peter Lombard's work opens up new research fields and addresses the practical concerns of contemporary 'Sentences commentators', while giving precious information on how the Book of 'Sentences'... influenced the study of theology throughout the Middle Ages and is presently influencing researches in different areas, ranging from theology to history and philosophy."Alexandra Baneu, Philobiblon, Vol. XXI (2016), No. 1
