Search - List of Books by Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange
Reginald Marie Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P. (February 21, 1877, Auch, France — February 15, 1964, Rome) was a Catholic theologian and, among Thomists of the scholastic tradition, is generally thought to be the greatest Catholic Thomist of the 20th century. He taught at the The Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas, commonly known as the Angelicum, in Rome from 1909 to 1960.
Father Garrigou-Lagrange initially attracted attention when he wrote against the theological movement later called Modernism. He is best known for his spiritual theology. He propounded the thesis that infused contemplation and the resulting mystical life are in the normal way of holiness of Christian perfection. His classical work in the field is The Three Ages of the Interior Life. He taught many eminent Catholic theologians during his academic career, the most illustrious being the future Pope John Paul II, of whom he said "Writes much; says little." [1]
He produced 28 books and hundreds of articles. Among the most famous works are:
