El Instituto Teológico “San Pedro de Alcántara” del Seminario de la Diócesis de Coria-Cáceres es una institución académica que confiere una titulación universitaria (bachiller en Teología reconocida como licenciatura en Ciencias Eclesiásticas) al ser un centro afiliado a la Facultad de Teología San Isidoro de Sevilla. Este centro es una de las instituciones más arraigadas en el corazón de la región cacereña por su vinculación diocesana y el centro de Estudios Superior más antiguo de la Ciudad. Estos dos hechos fundamentales que caracterizan el Instituto Teológico del Seminario –a saber, el ser una institución de carácter universitario y el de tener como objetivo formar para el servicio, el interés y la vinculación a la vida de los cacereños– justifica el nacimiento de una publicación periódica de estudios e investigación tal como se reflejan en los objetivos que presentamos. En este sentido, la Revista responde a exigencias internas del propio desarrollo de los Estatutos del Instituto Teológico (tanto de sus fines como de su articulado, cf. art. 14) y a exigencias contextuales: la mayor integración y enriquecimiento mutuo entre la institución del Seminario y la sociedad vital diocesana, provincial y autonómica en la que vive y a la que se dispone a servir. Combina así la profundización del estudio de lo local con la vocación de la temática universal que caracteriza los estudios propios de las Ciencias Eclesiásticas Desde el volumen 2021 ha cambiado la disposición de las secciones. La publicación se compone de diversas secciones que son las siguientes: 1. Estudios monográfico y miscelánea: Artículos de investigación de alto rigor científico dotados de un sólido aparato conceptual y crítico. 2. Documentos: Presentación de documentos escritos o ediciones críticas. 3. Acontecimiento e In Memoriam: En este apartado se realizarán las crónicas de acontecimientos importantes en la vida intelectual de la Institución (por ejemplo, Inauguración del curso o la Semana de Encuentro Teológico), acontecimientos de interés en alguna de nuestras secciones que haya organizado la Diócesis (Centenarios, Semana fe-cultura…), seminarios y cursos organizados por la Universidad de Extremadura o en los que hayan participado los profesores del Instituto... Del mismo modo es un lugar para dedicar algunas palabras por la desaparición de aquellas personas que por su cercanía o notoriedad sean dignos de ello, en artículos que lleven por nombre "In memoriam”. 4.
