Philosophy Begins in Wonder
ISBN: 9781556357824 / Angielski / Miękka / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Philosophy begins with wonder, according to Plato and Aristotle. Yet Plato and Aristotle did not expand a great deal on what precisely wonder is. Does this fact alone not raise curiosity in us as to why this passion or concept is important?

The primary purpose of this book is to show how seventeenth- and eighteenth-century developments in natural theology, metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, and the philosophy of science resulted in a complex history of the passion...

Understanding St. Thomas on Analogy
ISBN: 9781449977672 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is a reprint of the dissertation that won the 2009 Prize of the Pontifical Academies. The analogy of names is not one of those topics that is important because it is a grand conclusion to intensive philosophical or theological research. Rather, analogy is important because it stands, explicitly or implicitly, at the very beginning of all work in philosophy and theology. For centuries, the thoughts of St. Thomas on analogy, which are found in texts scattered throughout his works, were considered to have been aptly grouped and articulated by Cardinal Cajetan. Most works on analogy in...
