"An Introduction to the Metaphysics of St. Thomas Aquinas" is an
accessible Aquinas and a solid entry into his work. The format is
manageable, and the scope, appropriately limited. James F.
Anderson's skillful collection and lucid translation makes the
pleasure of reading Aquinas available as it has not been before.
Rich with doctrinal exactitude and a moving beauty of expression,
the prayers and hymns of St. Thomas Aquinas have long been
considered to be among the Church's greatest treasures. Now you can
bring these treasures into your own prayer life with this first
complete English collection of these stirring prayers.
This handy and beautiful leatherette volume brings you all of
St. Thomas's known prayers and hymns in their Latin originals,
along with new English translations. These translations render the
originals with superb precision and a soul-fortifying eloquence
that rivals St. Thomas's own masterly use of Latin. A number of
these prayers have never before been translated into English.
The second edition of Aquinas, On Law, Morality, and Politics
retains the selection of texts presented in the first edition but
offers them in new translations by Richard J. Regan--including that
of his Aquinas, Treatise on Law (Hackett, 2000). A revised
Introduction and glossary, an updated select bibliography, and the
inclusion of summarizing headnotes for each of the
units--Conscience, Law, Justice, Property, War and Killing,
Obedience and Rebellion, and Practical Wisdom and
Statecraft-further enhance its usefulness.
This volume is part two of a two-volume set. It may be purchased
separately or in conjunction with volume one. Includes substantial
selections from the Second Part of the Summa Theologica and the
Summa Contra Gentiles. Pegis's revision and correction of the
English Dominican Translation renders Aquinas' technical
terminology consistently as it conveys the directness and
simplicity of Aquinas' writing; the Introduction, notes, and index
aim at giving the text its proper historical setting, and the
reader the means of studying St. Thomas within that setting.

This volume begins with excerpts from Aquinas' commentary on De
Anima, excerpts that proceed from a general consideration of soul
as common to all living things to a consideration of the animal
soul and, finally, to what is peculiar to the human soul. These are
followed by the Treatise on Man, Aquinas' most famous discussion of
human nature, but one whose organization is dictated by theological
concerns and whose philosophical importance is thus best
appreciated when seen as presented here: within the historical
philosophical framework of which it constitutes a development.
Aquinas' discussions of the will and the passions follow, providing
fruitful points of comparison with other philosophers.
The fifth volume of The Hackett Aquinas, a series of central
philosophical treatises of Aquinas in new, state-of-the-art
translations accompanied by a thorough commentary on the text.
Acclaim for previous volumes in the series: The Treatise on Human
Nature Translated, with Commentary, by Robert Pasnau "This very
readable and accurate translation of the so-called Treatise on
Human Nature strikes the right balance between literal rendition of
Aquinas' Latin and naturalness of English expression, and thus will
be of use both to new students of Aquinas and to those familiar
with the original Latin. The commentary on the text should make the
translation especially suitable for use in courses on Aquinas'
philosophy of human nature and theory of knowledge." Deborah Black,
University of Toronto The Treatise on the Divine Nature Translated,
with Commentary, by Brian J. Shanley, O.P. "That Shanley's
translation-cum-commentary can open students to such a rich
appropriation of Aquinas explains why I call it 'superb.'" David
Burrell, The Thomist Disputed Questions on Virtue Translated by
Jeffrey Hause and Claudia Eisen Murphy; Commentary by Jeffrey Hause
"Hause and Murphy are to be congratulated. [Their volume's] strong
points are numerous and important. The translation is clear and
faithful. . . . Hause offers an extended commentary which is solid
and helpful for beginning readers. . . . A gem." R. E. Houser,
Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
Creating a summary of all human knowledge may not be the sort of
undertaking we begin in the twenty-first century, but there is
still room on our bookshelves for a classic--Summa Theologica, one
of the world's oldest and greatest masterpieces. St. Thomas Aquinas
has much to teach us--most especially how to confront the classic
questions that are still with us after centuries of thought.
Richard J. Regan's new translation of texts from Thomas Aquinas'
Summa Theologica II-II--on the virtues prudence, justice,
fortitude, and temperance--combines accuracy with an accessibility
unmatched by previous presentations of these texts. While remaining
true to Aquinas' Latin and preserving a question-and-answer format,
the translation judiciously omits references and citations
unessential to the primary argument. It thereby clears a path
through the original especially suitable for beginning students of
Aquinas. Regan's Introduction carefully situates Aquinas' analysis
of these virtues within the greater ethical system of the Summa
Theologica , and each selection is introduced by a thoughtful
headnote. A glossary of key terms and a select bibliography are
also included.
This series offers central philosophical treatises of Aquinas in
new, state-of-the-art translations distinguished by their accuracy
and use of clear and non-technical modern vocabulary. Annotation
and commentary accessible to undergraduates make the series an
ideal vehicle for the study of Aquinas by readers approaching him
from a variety of backgrounds and interests.
