Reading Group

Thomistic Philosophy: On Human Action

Fridays | 9.30-11.00am | Elm Library

This reading group for undergraduate and graduate students will consider Aquinas’s Treatise on human action from the the Summa Theologiae.

Discussions will be in the style of a studium parvum, with seminar leaders and participants glossing questions and articles in communal reading. Preparation of readings is encouraged but not required. Those interested in participating should contact Patrick Hough.

 

Law is an ordering by reason, directed toward the common good, made by one who is in charge of the community, and promulgated.
