The Philosophy of Aquinas de Christopher Shields

The Philosophy of Aquinas

Autor Christopher Shields, Robert Pasnau
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2016
This new and updated edition of Christopher Shields and Robert Pasnau's The Philosophy of Aquinas introduces the Aquinas' overarching explanatory framework in order to provide the necessary background to his philosophical investigations across a wide range of areas: rational theology, metaphysics, philosophy of human nature, philosophy of mind, and ethical and political theory. Although not intended to provide a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects of Aquinas' far-reaching writings, the volume presents a systematic introduction to the principal areas of his philosophy and attends no less to Aquinas' methods and argumentative strategies than to his ultimate conclusions. The authors have updated the second edition in light of recent scholarship on Aquinas, while streamlining and refining their presentation of the key elements of Aquinas' philosophy.

Recenzii

The book surely deserves to be read by analytic philosophers who want to learn more about Aquinas.
Shields and Pasnau's goal is to furnish the student of Aquinas with the basic philosophical knowledge necessary to read and understand the philosophical theologian's works. They do that not only, as I have said, by interacting with Aquinas's own works, but also by offering and commenting on relevant practical examples that facilitate understanding, especially for the beginner. Furthermore, the primary sources listed in the suggested readings indicated at the end of each chapter (and throughout the individual chapters) are a further helpful addition to guide the student in the challenging but rewarding endeavor of understanding Aquinas. The book is organized in a helpfully systematic way, and the exposition is clear and highly readable.
