ISBN: 9780521780445 / Angielski / Twarda / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The Creative Retrieval of Saint Thomas Aquinas: Essays in Thomistic Philosophy, New and Old
ISBN: 9780823229284 / Angielski / Twarda / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. W. Norris Clarke has chosen the fifteen essays in this collection, five of which appear here for the first time, as the most significant of the more than seventy he has written over the course of a long career. Clarke is known for his development of a Thomistic personalism. To be a person, according to Saint Thomas, is to take conscious self-possession of one's own being, to be master of oneself. But our incarnate mode of being human involves living in a body whose life unfolds across time, and is inevitably dispersed across time. If we wish to know fully who we are, we need to assimilate and...
