Latin theology

Latin theology refers to the study and interpretation of Christian beliefs and doctrines developed mainly through the Latin-speaking Western Church, especially during the Middle Ages. It uses Latin as its primary language and combines theological reflection with philosophical insights to understand God, Jesus, salvation, and moral life. Latin theology shaped many core doctrines and contributed to the development of Western Christian thought, influencing church teachings, doctrines, and intellectual traditions. It is characterized by systematic approaches, writings of influential theologians like Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, and a focus on rational inquiry to deepen faith and clarify religious questions.
