Re-Thinking the Angelic Doctor by Aloysius N. Ezeoba Pdf
"Rethinking the Angelic Doctor is a major new reassessment of the reception of Thomas Aquinas in the work of the twentieth-century American philosopher W. Norris Clarke. Author Aloysius Ezeoba explores the question of whether Clarke was engaged in a "creative retrieval" of Aquinas' system of thought - with a focus on the human person - or whether Clarke was forging his own path in attemptting to provide a "creative conclusion". Shedding new light on the workings of two great minds separated by eight centuries, Rethinking the Angelic Doctor will be of interest to readers who are looking for a timely re-examination of the Aristotelian arguments, especially as they are appropriated by template religious thinkers such as Aquinas. It will also be a valuable resource in graduate courses in medieval and modern philosophy, and theology"--
