Ens Primum Cognitum in Thomas Aquinas and the Tradition: The Philosophy of Being as First Known: Value Inquiry Book Series / Gilson Studies, cartea 309
Autor Brian Kempleen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 sep 2017
While the recent tradition has emphasized the primacy of the real (so-called ens reale) in human recognition of the primum cognitum, Kemple argues that this misinterprets Aquinas, thereby closing off Thomistic philosophy to the broader perspective needed to face the philosophical challenges of today, and proposes an alternative interpretation with dramatic epistemological and metaphysical consequences.
