Translator's Preface

matic theology at The Catholic University of America for first suggesting this task to me. I wish also to acknowledge assistance given me by the Reverend Dominic Hughes, O.P., especially in the translation of the Systematic Index; also the practical help of the following in the early part of our work: Sister Mary Dorothea, S.S.N.D., of Mount Mary College, Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Sister Mary Gratia, S.S.N.D., of the College of Notre Dame of Maryland, Baltimore, Maryland; Sister M. Kathleen, O.S.B., of Donnelly College, Kansas City, Kansas; Sister M. La Salette, R.S.M., of St. Vincent's Academy, Savannah, Georgia; and Sister Marie Carolyn, O.P., of The Catholic University of America.
