Thomas Aquinas believed that human actions have species, such as
theft or almsgiving. A problem arises, however, concerning his
teaching on how such moral kinds are determined. Aquinas uses five
different terms - end, object, matter, circumstance, and motive -
to identify what gives species to human actions. Although
similarities in meaning can be discerned between certain of these
terms, apparent differences between others make it difficult to
grasp how all five could refer to what specifies human actions.
Joseph Pilsner examines and compares Aquinas's understanding of
these five terms to see if a consistent account of his teaching on
specification can be proposed.
