" Peter Lombard has been called "the father of systematic theology". He wrote the most widely used theological textbook of the Middle Ages. Born in Lombardy, northern Italy, he studied at Bologna and Paris (his teacher at Paris was probably Abelard). From about 1140, he taught theology in Paris, and became bishop of Paris in 1159 but died the following year. Lombard's great work was his Four Books of Sentences, produced between 1147 and 1151. Sentences means "opinions". This was a collection of quotations from the Bible, the early Church fathers, the ecumenical Councils, and other authorities, dealing with the whole range of theological topics. It was divided into four books: (i) the Trinity and providence; (ii) creation, sin and grace; (iii) the incarnation, salvation and moral virtues; (iv) the sacraments and eschatology. In some ways it was similar to Abelard's Sic et non. The difference was that Lombard offered solutions to all difficulties and apparent contradictions..." - Nick Needham
