Synopsis

Forbidden Lore explores the hidden side of history, delving into suppressed knowledge and alternative perspectives often excluded from mainstream narratives. It examines how suppressed knowledge can challenge established power structures, offering different views on humanity's origins and potential. For example, the book investigates the systematic suppression of Gnostic texts and alternative Christian doctrines during the Roman Empire's rise, highlighting how religious institutions can shape societal beliefs. The book also covers the persecution of esoteric and occult traditions in medieval and early modern times, which led to the loss of valuable magical and scientific knowledge. In the modern era, it addresses the marginalization of research challenging scientific paradigms, especially concerning ancient civilizations and unexplained phenomena.

 
By drawing on ancient texts, historical documents, and academic research, the book offers a rigorous historical analysis while maintaining an accessible tone. The book unfolds in three parts, beginning with an introduction to the concept of forbidden lore. It then examines specific historical instances of knowledge suppression, such as the witch hunts of Europe. Finally, it synthesizes these analyses to propose a framework for understanding the dynamics of knowledge control and its implications for intellectual freedom and scientific progress.

    In Thinking Through Aquinas: Essays on God, Humanity, and Christ, Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt presents fourteen essays, written over the course of twenty years, that are attempts both to think through the arguments contained in the theology of Thomas Aquinas and to use the theology of Thomas to think through the questions that confront theologians in our own day. The essays include discussions of Thomas’s understanding of the nature of theology and of God; his reflections on virtue, vice, and the moral life; and his theology of Christ, the Church, and the Sacraments. Over the course of these essays, Thomas is brought into dialogue with figures ranging from Michel Foucault to Flannery O’Connor, Jonathan Lear to Ignacio Ellacuría, Stanley Hauerwas to St. John Paul II.
