| Summary: | This is the expansion of author’s STL thesis. Focusing on the Summa theologiae (ST), this work aims at ‘the recovery, reconstruction, and critique of Aquinas’s account of emotion in dialogue with both the Thomist tradition and contemporary analytic philosophy’ (p. 6). In a context when the Treatise on the Passions ‘has scarcely attracted the attention of moralists’ the author’s initiative is significant. The study, since it engages the philosophical and theological exploration of Aquinas’s account of passion, has the merit of generously considering both philosophers and theologians as its readers. |
