Review
German scholars are famous for first-rate handbooks; this is a splendid specimen. It covers the field of
dogmatic theology and is translated into clear, readable English…Excellent summaries are given of disputed
questions…highly recommended to priests engaged in teaching religion in high school or college. For
educated laymen it is a fine summary of what the priest learned in the seminary. --America (1956)

Quite the most remarkable work of compression of its kind that I have encountered. --James Bastible,

FUNDAMENTALS OF CATHOLIC DOGMA BY LUDWIG OTT
PDF

After half a century, still the greatest one-volume compendium of Catholic teaching ever published. First
published in German in 1952, Professor Ludwig Ott's Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma instantly became an
indispensable reference for priests, teachers and families. Comprehensive yet concise, it provides in a single
large volume clear explanations of every Catholic doctrinal teaching-along with their foundations in
Scripture, Tradition, Church councils, papal pronouncements, and the Fathers and Doctors of the Church.
And unlike any other compendium of doctrine before or since, it provides the Theological Grade of Certainty
for every teaching it contains. Ott begins with an introduction to the science of theology itself, explaining its
principles, methods, vocabulary, and system of classification. He also shows you how to distinguish the
Catholic understanding of the development of dogma from the heretical version, and how to differentiate the
three kinds of Catholic truth and the six grades of theological certainty. The book is organized into five
major sections, covering the entire range of Catholic teaching according to the divisions of traditional
catechesis: THE UNITY OF GOD: HIS EXISTENCE AND NATURE; GOD THE CREATOR; THE
DOCTRINE OF GOD THE REDEEMER; THE DOCTRINE OF GOD THE SANCTIFIER; THE
DOCTRINE OF GOD THE CONSUMMATOR. Detailed table of contents with over 250 entries; 18-page
index of Old and New Testament (the best of its kind ever compiled); Index of Persons; Index of Subjects;
Extensive Bibliography.

Good Book, Bad Binding!!
By Celle
Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma
This Book is a Classic! and I was pleased that it had at last become available in Hardback from Roman
Catholic Books, however after One day a section containing about Five or six pages just detached from the
Binding, there is a problem with the Binding, which to me looks like it will be the same story for any edition
from this batch of Books until they improve the Binding.
The print is exactly the same as the TAN edition, The Book itself looks cheap and the Binding is very basic,
what you expect from a paperback NOT a Hardback (the TAN paperback has a far superior Binding). If you
have the Catechism of the Council of Trent from the same Publisher(RCB), you may think that this book
would have the same fine cover and binding, well it does not, the publishers have even put an advertisment
on the back cover totaly destroying the asthetic appeal of the book.
My final summary is ... Cheap and Nasty, avoid!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent book, but the binding is hit-or-miss.
By Vagabond of Letters
I echo the previous reviewer; I ordered a copy of this book, and it was falling apart, book block separated
from spine. I exchanged it for a new copy via Amazon, and the second copy, while not by any means bound
well, after the fashion of a Smyth-sewn Cambridge Bible, is holding up as well as most other cheap, case-
bound hardcover books.

However, the entire book is purplish blue; there is no advertisement on the back cover of either of my copies.
It looks not-bad.

A CLEAR PRESENTATION OF THE "ESSENTIALS OF CHURCH TEACHING"
By Steven H Propp
Ludwig Ott (1906-1985) was a Catholic priest and theologian from Bavaria, who was professor of dogmatics
and later rector of the Catholic university at Eichstaett. He wrote in the Preface to this 1952 book, "My aim
was to present the essentials of Church teaching and the foundation of such teaching in clear and concise
form.... only the most important pronouncements of Official Church Teaching, only individual significant
scriptural texts, and only one or two patristic texts could be quoted verbatim. The history of the development
of dogma has been kept within the minumum limits indispensable for the understanding of Church doctrine...
The many indications to the works of St. Thomas are intended to be a pointer to deeper study."

He explains in the Introduction, "Theological opinions are free views on aspects of doctrines concerning
Faith and morals, which are neither clearly attested in Revelation nor decided by the Teaching Authority of
the Church. Their value depends upon the reasons adduced in their favour... A point of doctrine ceases to be
an object of free judgment when the Teaching Authority of the Church takes an attitude which is clearly in
favour of one opinion." (Pg. 9) He observes, "The profane facts of natural science and history contained in
Holy Writ are not inspired per se, but only ,,, by virtue of their relation to religious-moral truths. The data
inspired... is also the Word of God, and consequently without error. However, as the hagiographers in
profane things make use of a popular, that is, a non-scientific form of exposition suitable to the mental
perception of their times, a more liberal interpretation, is possible here. The Church gives no positive
decisions in regard to purely scientific questions, but limits itself to rejecting errors which endanger faith.
Further, in these scientific matters there is no value in a consensus of the Fathers since they are ... here
acting... merely as private scientists." (Pg. 92)

He admits, "The doctrine of the Immaculate Conception of Mary is not explicitly revealed in Scripture.
According to many theologians is it contained implicitly ... in the following passages [Gen 3:15; Lk 1:28; Lk
1:41]... Neither the Greek nor the Latin Fathers explicitly teach the Immaculate Conception of Mary. Still
they teach it implicitly, in two fundamental notions: a) Mary's most perfect purity and holiness... b) The
similarity and contrast between Mary and Eve." (Pg. 200-201) Later, he adds, "Mary bore her Son without
any violation of her virginal integrity... The dogma merely asserts the FACT... without determining more
closely how this is to be physiologically explained." (Pg. 205) Similarly, about the Assumption of Mary,
"Direct and express scriptural proofs are not to be had... From her fulness of grace spoken of in Luke 1:28,
Scholastic theology derives the doctrine of the bodily assumption and glorification of Mary." (Pg. 208-209)

He states, "In the final decision on doctrines concerning faith and morals the church is infallible... Christ
promised His Apostles the assistance of the Holy Ghost for the fulfillment of their teaching task... This
presupposes that the Apostles and their successors in their promulgation of faith are far removed from the
danger of error... The infallibility of the promulgation of faith is a presupposition of the unity and of the
indestructability of the Church." (Pg. 297-298) He asserts, "As against modern religious indifferentism, Pius
IX declared" 'By Faith it is to be firmly held that outside the Apostolic Roman Church none can achieve
salvation. This is the only ark of salvation. He who does not enter into it, will perish in the flood.
Nevertheless equally certainly it is to be held that those who suffer from invincible ignorance of the true
religion, are not for this reason guilty in the eyes of the Lord.' The last proposition holds out the possibility
that people who in point of fact... do not belong to the Church can achieve salvation." (Pg. 312)

He points out, "The Council of Trent declared against the Reformers, whose idea of justification led them to
deny ... the necessity o8f Baptism for salvation... As to the moment of the beginning of the baptismal
obligation, the Council of Trent declared that after the promulgation of the Gospel... there could be no
justification without Baptism or the desire for the same." (Pg. 356) He says, "Christ promised the power of
absolution to the Apostles only [Mt 18:18] and transferred this power to them only [Jn 20:23]. The power
passed from the Apostles to their successors in the priesthood, the bishops and the presbyters. The
hierarchical constitution of the Church demands that the judicial power of absolution cannot belong to all the
faithful indiscriminately, but only to members of the hierarchy." (Pg. 439)

He notes, "The Union Councils of Lyons and Florence declared that the souls of the damned are punished
with unequal punishments... This is probably intended to assert ... a difference in the degree of punishment
for personal sins. Jesus threatens the inhabitants of Corazain and Bethesda... with a stricter judgment then the
dwellers in Tyre or Sidon [Mt. 11:22]. The Scribes are to be subject to a particularly strict judgment [Lk
20:47]." (Pg. 482)

Written prior to Vatican II, this clear exposition of “traditional” Catholic doctrine will be of most interest to
traditionalists and conservatives, or to anyone wanting to know that “historical” Catholic teaching on a
particular subject was.
