Abstract:

Abstract: Thomas Osborne's Thomas Aquinas on Virtue offers readers a judicious and comprehensive account of Aquinas's teaching on infused and acquired virtues. Osborne puts that teaching in its original context by showing how Aquinas transforms the Augustinian understanding of virtue found in Lombard's Sentences by means of the recently rediscovered Aristotelian teaching on virtue. In drawing on the full range of Aquinas's discussion of virtue, neglecting neither the Scripture commentaries nor Aristotle commentaries, Osborne brings into a harmonious whole the obiter dicta remarks of Aquinas found in so many different works. It will be of great use to professors and graduate students seeking to understand the whole of this doctrine which is expressed in so many different works in Aquinas's opera omnia .

Abstract:

Despite its enormous historical influence, Thomas Aquinas’s account of the emotions has been neglected since the early modern period. Recently however, it has been drawing renewed attention from scholars in a number of disciplines. This paper gives an overview of Aquinas’s account of the emotions and the state of contemporary scholarship. It describes his fundamentally positive attitude toward desire and emotion, and then it shows the centrality of his theory of the emotions to his ethics and his understanding of virtue. In the course of its argument, the paper examines the relationship between reason and emotion, the inseparable link between emotion and virtue, the influence of Christology on Aquinas’s understanding of the emotions, and the moral normativity of unspecified passion. It also compares Aquinas to David Hume. Finally, it proposes a tentative explanation for why Aquinas was motivated to give more attention to emotion in his writings than any previous philosopher or theologian, and it discusses Aquinas’s hidden influence in contemporary philosophy and theology of emotion.

Abstract:

Over the past several decades, some Evangelical philosophers and theologians have embraced the metaphysics, epistemology, and natural law theory of Thomas Aquinas (1225–74), despite that fact that historically some of the leading lights in Evangelicalism have rejected Aquinas’s views because they believed these views are inconsistent with classical Reformation teaching. Some of these Evangelical Thomists have argued that on the matter of justification Aquinas is out of step with Tridentine and post-Tridentine Catholicism though closer to the Protestant Reformers. This article argues that such a reading of Aquinas is mistaken, and that Aquinas’s understanding of justification is of a piece with his both his predecessors (Augustine, Council of Orange) as well as his successors (Council of Trent, Catechism of the Catholic Church)

Abstract:

AbstractJohn Milbank is one of the most recent and arguably most radical proponents of an understanding of nature as graced. This article critically examines Milbank's understanding of nature and grace, specifically as elaborated within his reading of Thomas Aquinas. In the first part I will outline Aquinas's most direct discussions of nature and grace in the Summa Theologica, drawing attention to several central, albeit subtle, distinctions that these contain. In the second and third parts, I will examine Milbank's reading of Aquinas in Truth in Aquinas, and examine whether it adequately reflects and negotiates Aquinas's distinctions. On this basis I will argue Milbank's reading, while drawing attention to some important and often neglected areas of Aquinas's thought, ultimately remains limited.

Full text

Abstract:

This essay examines St. Thomas Aquinas’s views on different types of impairment. Aquinas situates physical and moral impairments in a teleological account of the human species, and these impairments are made relative in light of our ultimate flourishing in God. For Aquinas, moral and spiritual impairments are of primary significance. Drawing on Philippa Foot’s account of natural goods, we describe what constitutes an impairment for Aquinas. In the Thomistic sense, an impairment is a lack or privation in relation to that which is appropriate to the human being, known by our nature and ultimate perfection. For Aquinas, perfection lies in the transformation necessary for union with God.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract: Since around the middle of the twentieth century, the conviction of St. Thomas Aquinas that Jesus Christ enjoyed the beatific vision throughout his earthly lifetime, from the moment of his conception, has been much criticized in Catholic theology. More recently, some followers of Aquinas, including Thomas Joseph White, O.P., and Simon Francis Gaine, O.P., have argued for Aquinas's position but with different arguments from the one Aquinas proposed for his conclusion in the Summa theologiae . This article examines the value of adding such arguments to Aquinas's own in response to a different assessment of the arguments, proposed recently in The Thomist by Joshua Lim. It supports a reading of Aquinas's argument in the Summa theologiae different from Lim's presentation and in that light concludes that it cannot bear all the weight Lim attributes to it, thereby leaving more space for other arguments, such as those of White and Gaine, to participate in the debate.

Abstract:

Abstract In this paper I argue that there are resources in the work of Thomas Aquinas that amount to a unique approach to what David P. Schweikard and Hans Bernhard Schmid’s call the “Central Problem” facing theorists of collective intentionality and action. That is to say, Aquinas can be said to affirm both (1) the “Individual Ownership Claim” and (2) the “Irreducibility Claim,” coherently and compellingly. Regarding the Individual Ownership Claim, I argue that Aquinas’s concept of “general virtue” (virtus generalis) buttresses an account of the way in which individuals act collectively qua individuals, i.e., without invoking hive minds or other scientifically problematic phenomena. Further, with respect to the Irreducibility Claim (2), I argue that Aquinas’s concept of “common good” (bonum commune) offers an account of the way in which some powers and acts of social groups are importantly irreducible to those of their members. Considered together, I argue that these two positions in Aquinas are correlative, and therefore amount to a coherent account of collective action and group agency, respectively.

Full text

Abstract:

This article argues Aquinas’s doctrine of the beatific vision suffers from a twofold christological deficit: (1) Aquinas rarely alludes to an eternally continuing link (whether as cause or as means) between Christ’s beatific vision and ours; and (2) for Aquinas the beatific vision is not theophanic, that is to say, for Aquinas, Christ is not the object of the beatific vision; instead, he maintains the divine essence constitutes the object. Even if Aquinas were to have followed his “principle of the maximum” in the unfinished third part of the Summa and so had discussed Christ’s own beatific vision as the cause of the saints’ beatific vision, he would still have ended up with a christological deficit, inasmuch as Christ would still not be the means and the object of the saints’ beatific vision. For a more christologically robust way forward, I draw on John Owen and several other Puritan theologians, who treat the beatific vision as the climactic theophany.

Abstract:

Thomas Aquinas, in one or another way, inherits from Augustine of Hippo a philosophical and theological patrimony that has a great impact on the doctrine of the church. The influence of Augustine on Aquinas which is in turn called Aquinas’s Augustinianism is informed by Aristotle’s thought. One of the Augustinian theological heritage that developed by Aquinas is the teaching of the Word that is the second person in the Trinity. Althought full of controversy, Aquinas stands confirmed in using Aristotle’s epistemology as lens for reading Augustine’s teaching; and, in turn, he sets up an insightful theological synthesis. This article is traying to show how far even how good Aquinas works on the concept of word both in theological and philosophical sense.

Full text

Abstract:

In this paper, I note that a number of theological studies have discussed Aquinas’s view that a human being is made in the image of God and the relevance of this doctrine for his theological ethics. Additionally, some philosophical studies have argued that the notion of image undergirds Aquinas’s account of the analogy between creatures and God. Surprisingly, however, none of these studies have given much attention to the fundamental question of what Aquinas understands an image (imago) as such to be. Yet, if the theologians and philosophers are correct, then the notion of image is itself a “metaphysical preamble” both to the natural knowledge of God (because it belongs to the metaphysical backdrop that makes analogy possible) and to the knowledge and love of God made possible through divine revelation and grace (because it undergirds the belief that rational creatures are made in the image and likeness of God, a reality that suggests the greatness of our calling). My aim in this paper is, therefore, to explore what Aquinas understands an image (imago) to be.

Abstract:

Abstract It is now standard to interpret Aquinas as recognizing two main types of material objects: substances and artifacts, where substances are those material objects that result from some particular substantial form inhering in prime matter, and artifacts are those material objects that result from some particular accidental form inhering in one or more material substances. There are two problems with this standard interpretation. First, there are passages in which Aquinas states that accidental forms should be understood not as inhering in substances from the outside, but as entering into their composition so as to be included among their metaphysical parts. Second, there are passages in which Aquinas states that it is impossible for any accidental form to be shared by two or more substances. This article considers what implications these two observations might have for how we understand the metaphysical structure of artifacts in Aquinas’s ontology.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper tries to discuss how Western philosophy critically examined the thought of Thomas Aquinas in the scholastic era. The scholastic era or known medieval philosophy whose style is the philosophy of collaborating with theology in harmony. Philosophy in the scholastic era gave birth to many famous theologians-philosophers, one of whom was Thomas Aquinas, who was the subject of this paper. After the authors traced through this paper the answer found that Aquinas was the most important figure of Western philosophy in the scholastic era. Aquinas is considered to have made a real contribution in unifying the original elements of Augustine's thought, strongly influenced by the philosophy of Neo-Platonism, with the philosophy of Aristotle.The author criticized Aquinas's view that Aristotle's philosophical system contains true rational truths. Basically using philosophical methods to understand theology is very helpful. That has been done by Aquinas; it only needs to be underlined that the method for understanding philosophy without losing the nature of theology is not entirely correct either. However there are also problems that cannot be fully explained by philosophical approaches. Like the problem of beliefs related to metaphysical problems, for example. The problem of belief in matters that are metaphysical is a problem that is difficult to explain philosophical logic. Aquinas stated that theological truth is clear to human reason. For example, it is the truth about God's existence. This truth comes from revelation, but how to explain philosophically that can satisfy curiosity so that what is believed can be understood rationally.

Fokus tulisan ini adalah menggali pandangan Thomas Aquinas tentang esensi dan eksistensi Tuhan, dengan fokus pada konsep "Esse sebagai Ipsum Esse Subsistens." Aquinas mengatakan bahwa Tuhan adalah eksistensi murni yang ada pada diri-Nya sendiri, tidak tergantung pada faktor eksternal. Dalam Summa Theologica, Aquinas merinci bahwa Tuhan adalah sumber keberadaan, kebenaran, kebaikan, dan keindahan. Analisis kritis terhadap karya-karya Aquinas membantu memahami landasan filosofis dalam tradisi teologi Kristen. Konsep Ipsum Esse Subsistens menyoroti aspek keberlanjutan dan kekekalan Tuhan sebagai inti segala eksistensi. Dengan membahas pandangan Aquinas, penelitian ini merinci hubungan esensi dan eksistensi Tuhan, menyajikan pandangan yang dalam dan kontekstual terhadap teologi Kristen.Tulisan ini menemukan kontribusi Aquinas dalam memahami Tuhan sebagai Ipsum Esse Subsistens memberikan wawasan penting dalam pemikiran teologis dan filosofis yang terus relevan hingga saat ini.

Abstract:

The focus of this research is to discuss the problem of proving the existence of God, a review and commentary on Thomas Aquinas' proof. The arguments of Thomas Aquinas are put forward and described in the general framework of a complete theological knowledge. This argument is a work of proof that is so systematic and very detailed. Also presented in this article are the opinions of several thinkers who have tried to explore and understand Thomas Aquinas' arguments regarding the proof of God's existence. Their framework of thought is different from Aquinas, there are similarities but there are also differences in the elements according to their respective points of view. This research is a library research using the hermeneutic phenomenology method, meaning that it is carried out by collecting, studying, managing and interpreting library materials and experiences of faith in God. The main sources of this research work by Thomas Aquinas include Summa Theologiae, and others as secondary sources. The findings from this research are that the meaning and function of the analogy as intended in Aquinas' argument is to point to a new action, which overcomes the parallel levels of created things. Thomas Aquinas started from a horizontal position, then changed that position to a vertical position. Aquinas discovered a new dimension, namely the spiritual dimension, which renewed life and lived faith in God.

Abstract:

Abstract: In the Summa theologiae II-II, q. 2, a. 7, Aquinas argues that faith in the mystery of Christ is necessary "at all times and for all persons," even for those existing prior to the Fall into sin. This teaching appears to stand in tension with Aquinas's well-known position on the motive of the Incarnation. If, according to Aquinas, redemption from sin is the primary motive of the Incarnation, such that if humanity had not sinned God would not have become incarnate, how to make sense of his teaching on the necessity of Adam's explicit faith in Christ prior to the Fall? In this paper, I explore the surprising development of Aquinas's teaching on Adam's faith from his early Scriptum on the Sentences to the Summa theologiae and show how his later teaching, far from betraying a momentary lapse in judgment, in fact highlights the strongly 'christocentric' character of his thought.

In this article, I explore how William Desmond recovers Thomas Aquinas's Five Ways by offering a new way for considering the relation of God to being. I do so in the context of Charles Taylor’s reflections on the immanent frame and the possibility of thinking towards God in the secular age. Desmond renews Aquinas proofs by seeing in them a hermeneutic openness to God. Considering each of Aquinas’s five ways through the lens of Desmond’s philosophy, I argue that each proof reveals God’s ways of being within being as a path to recovering an awareness of God’s presence in the world.

Abstract:

abstract: In the 1880s, Matthias Joseph Scheeben and Theodor Granderath argued over how to interpret Thomas Aquinas’s teaching in Summa Theologiae I–II, q. 114, a. 3 on the relation between the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and condign merit. Scheeben pointed to this passage as evidence that his view that the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as uncreated grace is in harmony with Aquinas. He argued that Aquinas’s phrase “the grace of the Holy Spirit” indicates that, for Aquinas, two principles are necessary for condign merit: created grace and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as uncreated grace. This is a misreading of Aquinas, which stemmed from Scheeben’s attempt to reconcile his Greek patristic-inspired theology of divine indwelling with Latin Scholasticism. This analysis lends support to the opinion that Aquinas understood grace primarily as created, not as uncreated, as some scholars have recently argued. It also suggests that Scheeben should be regarded as a “Thomist” only in a qualified sense.

Abstract:

This article continues a conversation with Hans Boersma on the role of Jesus Christ in the beatific vision enjoyed by the saints. In his book Seeing God, Boersma maintained that there is a Christological deficit in Thomas Aquinas’s account of the beatific vision. In response I suggested that Aquinas held that Christ’s beatific vision is forever the cause of that of the saints. In his reply to me, Boersma more or less accepted my conclusion, but claimed there was still a Christological deficit because Aquinas mentions the thesis only rarely. He then drew attention to a second, more important factor in the alleged deficit, namely, Aquinas’s identification of the divine essence rather than Christ as the vision’s object. The present article responds to both elements of the alleged deficit, arguing against Boersma on the basis of the Summa Theologiae’s structure that there is no such deficit in Aquinas. While Boersma, after finding against Aquinas, moves in conclusion “towards a theophanic view of the beatific vision,” in my own conclusion I sketch out an alternative, Thomist account of the relationship between the beatific vision and heavenly theophany.

Abstract: This study aims to analyze the political practice that occurs in the Lembang Pondingao’ community by using the theoretical approach of Thomas Aquinas' political ethics. Politics is a reflection of human life in managing life together in a community for the creation of the common good. The method used in this research is qualitative with a descriptive approach, where the data collection techniques are through observation, interviews, and literature study. Then the data was analyzed using data reduction techniques, data display, and interpretation related to political practice in Lembang Pondingao'. The results of the study show that (1) the people of Lembang Pondiango' have a view that politics is the desire to rule and oppress, where this view is contrary to Thomas Aquinas' political ethics which emphasizes how to do right and good based on rational actions based on ratios, (2) the relationship between individuals in society, even the relationship between religious leaders and the government is not harmoniously established in their daily lives because some people in Lembang Pondiango' still adhere to the principle of social strata. This is a contradiction with the views of Thomas Aquinas in a society or community because Thomas Aquinas said that in order to achieve perfection in political activity, justice must be created so that homo homini lupus does not occur, (3) as a leader in society, namely the government and religious leaders. cannot work hand in hand in leading a community that should work together in solving problems that exist in society. Where should we pay attention to each other to achieve justice in the community in order to create what Thomas Aquinas calls the bonum commune.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa (1) masyarakat Lembang Pondiango’ memiliki pandangan tentang politik adalah hendak untuk berkuasa dan menindas, di mana pandangan ini bertentangan dengan etika politik Thomas Aquinas yang menekankan bagaimana seharusnya berbuat secara benar dan baik berdasarkan tindakan yang rasional berdasarkan rasio, (2) relasi antara individu dalam masyarakat, bahkan relasi antar tokoh agama dan pemerintah tidak terjalin secara harmonis dalam kehidupan keseharian mereka oleh karena sebagian masyarakat Lembang Pondiango’ masih memegang prinsip strata sosial. Hal ini kontraversi dengan pandangan Thomas Aquinas dalam sebuah masyarakat atau komunitas karena Thomas Aquinas mengatakan bahwa untuk mencapai kesempurnaan dalam aktivitas politik, maka harus tercipta yang namanya keadilan agar tidak terjadi homo homini lupus, (3) sebagai pemimpin dalam masyarakat yaitu pemerintah dan tokoh agama pun tidak bisa bergandengan dalam memimpin masyarakat yang seharusnya berjalan bersama dalam menyelesaikan persoalan-persoalan yang ada dalam masyarakat. Di mana harus memperhatikan satu sama lain untuk mencapai keadilan dalam komunitas agar tercipta yang Thomas Aquinas sebut sebagai bonum commune.

Abstract:

The primary objective of this study is to revisit Thomas Aquinas’ notion of justice in light of the author’s own considerations regarding false testimony, specifically in its relation to sin. The intention is to emphasize, within the philosopher, theologian, and advisor’s thinking, the non-sacrificial dimension of justice, which aligns with a testimonial view of cultural evolution and, consequently, philosophical and theological thought. These topics will be addressed through an examination of the discussion surrounding antisemitism in S. Thomas Aquinas, a discussion conducted and explored by Hippolyte Gayraud in his book titled L’Antisémitisme de Saint Thomas D’Aquin (The Antisemitism of Saint Thomas Aquinas).

Abstract:

In this article, I focus on what emerges from Thomas Aquinas’s religious epistemology once taken into consideration in the light of the contemporary debates on Christian philosophy. I argue that Aquinas profitably explores what is specific to Christian faith – its being under the command of the will moved by God’s grace. According to Aquinas, it seems that it is precisely that which is specific to faith and distinguishes it from human reason that puts believers in an ideal condition to develop intellectual activities.

Abstract: This overview of Thomas Osborne's Thomas Aquinas on Virtue opens by seeking to establish the context and relevance of the project, especially considering developments in contemporary analytic practical philosophy. Following a precis of the six chapters of Osborne's text, indicating some of the highlights of each, I close by hazarding a few evaluative comments especially around some of the questions that the book helpfully provokes about the limits of philosophical and theological inquiry in Aquinas's understanding of virtue.

Abstract:

Nearly seven hundred years after the death of Boethius, Saint Thomas Aquinas appears to comment on the two works of Boethius: De Trinitate and De Hebdomadibus. In the last years of the 20th century, Aquinas’ comments aroused many discussions and questions among scholars. The question was asked why Aquinas was commenting on the texts of Boethius. Some scholars, such as Marian Kurdziałek, a Polish philosopher, argued that Aquinas intended to get rid of the old method of argumentation that dominated both philosophy and theology. Other scholars, such as Etienne Gilson, Pierre Duhem and Cornelio Fabro, criticized Aquinas, arguing that he used the texts of Boethius as a platform to create a metaphysics that was completely different. The last group of scholars, such as Ralph McInerny, rejects these allegations and claims. The article author joins the ongoing debate, arguing that Aquinas’s comments to Boethius aimed to develop further arguments against the heretics who lived in his time upon the authority of Boethius, who according to Timothy Noone represented the characteristic style of the scholars from the twelfth to the seventeenth century. The other part of the article discusses the question of whether Aquinas’ comments were correct interpretations of Boethius’ texts. In his opinion, the author of the article claims that the interpretations of the texts of Boethius made by Saint Thomas Aquinas is credible and may be the best commentary on Boethius. But, it is necessary to keep in mind the modifications resulting from various scientific cultures that prevailed in the time of the two great scholars.

Full text

Abstract:

Discussions of gratitude to God characteristically presuppose some philosophical or theological framework. This philosophical and theological exploration of gratitude to God examines the topic in light of the thought of Thomas Aquinas. Unlike some treatments of Aquinas’ account of gratitude, I draw extensively on Aquinas’ commentaries on Scripture as well as lesser known works, such as his sermons, to illuminate these topics rather than exclusively relying on the Summa theologiae. In the first part of this article, I focus on how Aquinas understands the virtue of gratitude to God. In the second part, I examine his account of ingratitude to God. And in the third part, I consider the difference Jesus makes in Aquinas’ understanding of these issues, including contesting the claim that “Jesus was an ingrate”.

Abstract:

This essay deals with the contrary opinions of Thomas Aquinas and Meister Eckhart on synderesis and conscience. In his theory, Thomas Aquinas focuses more on prudence and less on conscience. Meister Eckhart is the proponent of an attitude ethics focusing on the notion of scintilla animae. For Thomas Aquinas, the Aristotelian thinker, the practical syllogism links judgement to spiritual values, whereas Meister Eckhart gives priority to self-predication. By means of self-predication, action and normativity can be combined immediately; the practical syllogism combines them in an indirect way.

Abstract:

This volume gathers selected contributions from the conference Thinking with St. Thomas Today, held at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum, Rome) on February 17–18, 2023. The event, promoted by the Thomistic Institute and the International Society of St. Thomas Aquinas (SITA), aimed to foster dialogue between Pontifical and Italian civil universities. The initiative highlights a shared search for truth “in dulcedine societatis,” emphasizing thinking with Aquinas rather than merely about him. The contributions reflect the living relevance of Thomistic thought in contemporary philosophical and theological inquiry, through contemplation, explanation, and interpretation.

Abstract:

Jean-Luc Marion develops Heidegger’s ideas and his critical approach to onto-theology, including the thought of Thomas Aquinas. At the beginning of this article, we present this topic, which does not seem to lack relevance. Since the critics of ontology refer to Heidegger as a follower or protester, and on the other hand, since we intend to show that the name Thomas Aquinas gives to God does not reproduce the onto-theological determination of metaphysics, we intend to identify the connection between these two sides of the question, as well as to investigate, to some extent, the level of actual knowledge Heidegger had of Aquinas’s thought. In the second part of the article, we do not overlook the merit of the current called Radical Orthodoxy: questioning and renewing the vision of classic themes of theology, such as those of ritual, liturgy, theological language, political theology, the role of Augustine and Thomas, and the theme of authority.
