""Moral Values and the Moral Life: The Ethical Theory of St. Thomas Aquinas"" is a book written by Etienne Gilson, a renowned philosopher and historian of medieval philosophy. The book explores the ethical theory of St. Thomas Aquinas, a medieval theologian and philosopher who is widely considered to be one of the most important figures in the history of Western philosophy. Gilson's book provides an in-depth analysis of Aquinas' ethical theory, which is based on the idea that moral values are grounded in the nature of things, and that the ultimate goal of human life is to achieve happiness by living in accordance with the natural order of things. The book examines Aquinas' views on a wide range of moral issues, including the nature of the good, the role of reason in moral decision-making, the relationship between virtue and happiness, and the nature of moral obligation.Throughout the book, Gilson provides a clear and accessible account of Aquinas' ethical theory, drawing on a wide range of primary sources and secondary literature. He also situates Aquinas' ethical theory within the broader context of medieval philosophy and theology, highlighting the ways in which it was influenced by earlier thinkers and how it influenced later philosophical and theological developments.Overall, ""Moral Values and the Moral Life: The Ethical Theory of St. Thomas Aquinas"" is an insightful and informative book that will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of philosophy, ethics, or theology. It provides a detailed and nuanced account of Aquinas' ethical theory, and demonstrates the continued relevance of his ideas to contemporary debates in ethics and moral philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
