"It is
because
of the wonderfully integrated character of the wisdom of Thomas Aquinas
- integrated not only as supernatural with natural but also as thinking
with love - that the Church in our day should not leave him as a fresco
on a wall, but find inspiration from his teaching and example."
Thomas
Aquinas
is one of the great figures in western thought, whose ideas continue to
exert a powerful influence, not only on theologians but on contemporary
writers and thinkers of very different backgrounds and traditions.
After
a lengthy period of a decline in interest in the work of Aquinas,
recent
years have seen a new Thomistic renaissance, and a growing appreciation
for the way he brings together philosophy and theology, theology and
spirituality,
and revelation and ethics.
Discovering
Aquinas is a lively and authoritative introduction to his life and
thought, that not only establishes his historical importance but shows
why so many see him as a vital partner in contemporary debates about
the
future of Christianity.
