Product Details
Saint Thomas Aquinas is a brilliant sketch of the thought and life of Thomas Aquinas by G.K. Chesterton. First published in 1933, Saint Thomas Aquinas is a paperback with 208 pages that measures 5.5”W x 8.3”H. Chesterton’s Saint Thomas Aquinas is completely relevant today because it continues to be the best book written on the great thirteenth-century Dominican. When first published, Saint Thomas Aquinas earned the praise of high profile writers of the times including Anton Pegis, Etienne Gilson, and Jacques Martain. Aquinas is painted as a man of deep mystery and brilliance in Chesterton’s account. Although born in to a noble Neapolitan family, Thomas chose to become a mendicant friar and possessed a rare brilliance. Aquinas could find the highest truth in the humblest of objects.
A new generation is ready to be inspired by Aquinas who was first called “the Dumb Ox” by his schoolmates and went on to lead a revolution in Christian thought. Saint Thomas Aquinas illuminates why he cannot be left only to medieval times and how he continues to confound those who use Thomas to bolster arid schemes of Christian rationalism. Instead, Saint Thomas Aquinas introduces the deep mystery of the man who had unparalleled genius. At one point, Thomas said, “I can write no more. I have seen things which make all my writings like straw.” Learn more about one of the greatest Christian philosophers in Saint Thomas Aquinas which is written by one of the greatest of modern religious writers.
