Learn moreSaint Thomas Aquinas, an Italian philosopher and Dominican friar who lived during the thirteenth century, was the greatest of the medieval theologians. His writings harmonized faith and reason, which resulted in a Christian form of rationalism.
This treatise comprises questions 90โ97 of the Summa Theologica, in which St. Thomas presents a philosophical analysis of the nature and structure of law. Believing that law achieves its results by imposing moral obligations rather than outright force on those subject to it, he proceeds to explore vital questions about the essence of law, kinds of law, effects of law, eternal law, natural law, human law, and changes in law.
Saintย Thomas Aquinas (1225โ1274)ย was an Italianย Dominicanย priestย of theย Roman Catholic Church and an immensely influential philosopher andย theologian. His influence on Western thought is considerable, and much ofย modern philosophy was conceived in development or refutation of his ideas, particularly in the areas of ethics,ย natural law, metaphysics, and political theory. Thomas is held in the Catholic Church to be the model teacher for those studying for the priesthood.
