The Lectura Thomasina of William of Peter of Godin († 1326) typifies the transmission of Thomas Aquinas’ thought in the Dominican theological schools of the period between his death and his canonization.

Through a broad overview of the different forms of Aquinas quotations provided in Godin’s text, my study aims at classifying some of the different practices of reporting and transmitting the Thomistic dicta, in order to paint a concrete picture of the embryonic stage of »Thomism«.

Abstract

The Lectura Thomasina of William of Peter of Godin († 1326) typifies the transmission of Thomas Aquinas’ thought in the Dominican theological schools of the period between his death and his canonization. By combining the typical structure of a commentary on the Sentences with a long series of verbatim quotations from Aquinas, Godin publishes a teaching compen- dium, which offered a key to understanding the reception and the assimila- tion of some disputed Thomistic doctrines between the end of the 13th cen- tury and the first decades of the 14th century. Through a broad overview of the different forms of Aquinas quotations provided in Godin’s text, my study aims at classifying some of the different practices of reporting and transmitting the Thomistic dicta, in order to paint a concrete picture of the embryonic stage of »Thomism«.
