This volume contains new translations of the essential
philosophical writings of Thomas Aquinas from the Summa Theologiae
and The Principles of Nature. The included texts represent the
breadth of Aquinas's thought, addressing: the fundamental
principles of nature; causality; the existence of God; how God can
be known; how language can be used to describe God; human nature
(including the nature of the soul, free will, and epistemology);
happiness; ethics; and natural law. The goal of these translations
is twofold: to allow Aquinas to speak for himself, but also to make
his thought accessible to the contemporary reader without the
burden of unnecessary adherence to convention. A thorough yet
accessible introduction is included, as are a series of useful
appendices connecting Aquinas's arguments to those of Anselm,
Scotus, and others.
