We return again to study the work of Marie-Dominique Chenu OP (1895-2000). In 2021 we published a volume on his 'theological project', and in this volume we continue in that line by examining the basic intuitions of his theology Some of the authors are the same, Ulrich Engel OP and Janette Gray RSM but in addition there are two articles by Fergus Kerr OP (who studied under Chenu) and a translation of the article by Pietro Parente from 1942 where he refers to Chenu and the 'new theology'. This descriptive became widely used in describing writers such as Chenu, Congar and other French Dominican writers.

Ulrich Engel's article in the present volume argues that according to 'Pierre Jossua in an overview of Chenu's life pointed out that he had never really been rehabilitated by those ecclesiastical authorities'.
For Engel 'The five guiding intuitions of Chenu [and his theology] are the economy of salvation, the incarnational structure of his theological thinking, an understanding of pastoral theology and work as places of ecclesial discourse, attention to the signs of the time, and a high estimation of contemplation.'
His article unpacks these guiding intuitions. The other articles provide a context, historical and theological, for the intuitions and develop other themes to assist in understanding Chenu's contribution to theology.
