Description:

Three Credits Alternate Years: Spring 2010, 2012 In the 13th century when Aristotle's ideas were presented in Latin to the Christian theologians, a revolution in Western philosophical thought resulted. The problems concerning the origin of the universe, the nature of reality and the individuality of the human soul became the central questions in philosophical and theological discourse. At the center of the intellectual controversies is the figure of Thomas Aquinas. Thomas, the most rational of theologians or the most religious of philosophers provided profound and innovative solutions to metaphysical, epistemological and moral problems. This course will examine his sources, his solutions and the responses of his contemporaries. Prerequisite: GP 100 or GP 140.
