Aquinas, Pecham, and Pagula

What’s in Volume VI: This volume features several “medieval” catechisms that provides a fascinating glimpse into the catechetical methods of the middle ages, and a clear demonstration of Catholic doctrines that were held long before Trent or even Florence. Catechisms include the text of the Athanasian Creed, Quicumque Vult (ca. 370) as well as four brief catechisms from mid-1200s to early 1300s: The Catechetical Instructions (ca. 1260) is an arrangement of St. Thomas Aquinas’ Opuscula in catechetical form, Ignorantia Sacerdotum (1281) is the work of the Provincial Council of Lambeth convoked by the renowned Archbishop of Canterbury, John Pecham, Quinque Verba (1300) is an inexpensive pocket manual designed to “remedy the ignorance of simple priests…lest anyone try to excuse himself from knowing this material”, and finally, Oculus Sacerdotis (ca. 1320) is a single chapter from William of Pagula’s sizeable and meticulously detailed guide for priestly ministry — this chapter was frequently excerpted and circulated as a standalone text for religious instruction at the time.
