One of the great philosophers of the 20th Century, Josef Pieper,
gives a penetrating introduction and guide to the life and works of
perhaps the greatest philosopher ever, St. Thomas Aquinas. Pieper
provides a biography of Aquinas, an overview of the 13th century he
lived in, and a wonderful synthesis of his vast writings. Pieper
shows how Aquinas reconciled the pragmatic thought of Aristotle
with the Church, proving that realistic knowledge need not preclude
belief in the spiritual realities of religion. According to Pieper,
the marriage of faith and reason proposed by Aquinas in his great
synthesis of a "theologically founded worldliness" was not merely
one solution among many, but the great principle expressing the
essence of the Christian West. Pieper reveals his extraordinary
command of original sources and excellent secondary materials as he
illuminates the thought of the great intellectual Doctor of the
Church.
