{"product_id":"ambrose-of-milan-and-the-william-ford-9798235934719","title":"Ambrose of Milan and the Early Latin Theological Tradition","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe figure of St. Ambrose of Milan stands at a decisive crossroads in the history of the Church, where the Latin West began to articulate its theological voice with clarity, authority, and spiritual depth. To approach Ambrose is to enter a world in which the Church was emerging from persecution into imperial favor, yet still contending with doctrinal confusion, political turbulence, and the perennial challenge of forming Christians in holiness. His life and writings reveal a bishop who embodied the unity of doctrine and pastoral care, of classical culture and Christian revelation, of episcopal authority and personal humility. For the Catholic tradition, Ambrose is not merely a historical figure but a perennial teacher whose insights continue to illuminate the faith and shape the Church's understanding of Scripture, sacraments, and the moral life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book seeks to explore Ambrose's contribution to the early Latin theological tradition from a traditional Catholic perspective, attentive to the continuity of doctrine and the living heritage of the Fathers. The aim is not only to situate Ambrose within his historical context but also to show how his thought participates in the organic development of Catholic theology. His writings, whether exegetical, doctrinal, moral, or liturgical, reveal a mind deeply rooted in Scripture and tradition, yet capable of engaging the intellectual and political challenges of his time with remarkable clarity and courage. Ambrose's legacy is not confined to the fourth century; it reverberates through Augustine, the medieval scholastics, the liturgical tradition, and the magisterial teaching of the Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Ford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798235934719\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Colloquium Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"William Ford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48743170441471,"sku":"9798235934719","price":14.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ambrose-of-milan-and-the-william-ford-9798235934719","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
