St Thomas Aquinas / G.K. Chesterton. by Chesterton, G. K. (Gilbert Keith), 1874-1936, author. [Place of publication not identified] : Cana Press, [2022] Subjects Thomas, Aquinas, Saint, 1225?-1274. ISBN:  9780645465310 (pbk.) Description:  158 pages ; 21 cm. Requests:  0 Summary:  "Chesterton's biography of St Thomas Aquinas is the picture of a saintly genius--by a literary artist who himself had claims to intellectual splendour and heroic goodness. It has been praised by professional scholars who appreciate Chesterton's grasp of St Thomas' thought, as well as by ordinary readers who admire his flair for presenting the richness of this thought in such a compelling way. Yet it is not a conventional biography, abounding in facts and figures. It is, rather, a vehicle for illuminating St Thomas's life and his vast achievement in penetrating the truths of the Christian faith informed by reason. Our confused age is desperate for such trancendental wisdom. It calls out for high reason in the mdist or irrartionality and loss of faith, Christian realism in the face of utopian expectations, and Christian hope in response to prohecies of doom. Chesterton's biography remains unrivalled for its revelation of St Thomas's mind and heart. It bears out his insight that "each generation is converted by the saint who contradicts it most""--Page [4] of cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 230.2092 Thomas Ch Checked In Add Copy to MyList
