Thomas Aquinas on Virtue Hardback
by Thomas M. (University of St Thomas, Houston) Osborne Jr
Hardback
- Information
Description
Thomas Aquinas produced a voluminous body of work on moral theory, and much of that work is on virtue, particularly the status and value of the virtues as principles of virtuous acts, and the way in which a moral life can be organized around them schematically.
Thomas Osborne presents Aquinas's account of virtue in its historical, philosophical and theological contexts, to show the reader what Aquinas himself wished to teach about virtue.
His discussion makes the complexities of Aquinas's moral thought accessible to readers despite the differences between Thomas's texts themselves, and the distance between our background assumptions and his.
The book will be valuable for scholars and students in ethics, medieval philosophy, and theology.
