Jean-Pierre Torrell, O.P.’s definitive
scholarly biography of St. Thomas Aquinas has not too long ago obtained its
third version. Translator Matthew Minerd returns to the Catholic
Tradition Podcast to debate what we are able to be taught from Fr. Torrell about
the lifetime of St. Thomas and the context during which works just like the
Summa theologiae had been
written.
This episode is a deep dive into Thomas’s
vocation in plenty of senses – his Benedictine formation and
eventual determination to develop into a Dominican as a substitute, his mental
formation as a pupil of St. Albert the Nice and eventual
Bachelor of the Sentences, and his duties in instructing, writing,
disputation and preaching as a Grasp of the Sacred Pages on the
College of Paris and elsewhere. Wanting into this stuff can
educate us a lot about Thomas’s spirituality, his working strategies, and
the mental local weather of the time.
