Abstract

Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), an Italian Dominican friar and Catholic priest, is one of the most influential theologians in the Christian tradition. Scholarship on Aquinas is flourishing, with studies of natural law theory, action theory, the morality of the passions, feminism, political theory, etc. Yet despite the contemporary renewal of virtue ethics, to date no full-length treatment of Aquinas' theory of virtue exists. Aquinas on Virtues offers a new and comprehensive interpretation of how Aquinas uses the four causes--formal, material, final, and efficient--to understand virtue in general, and how these causes underlie his treatment of specific virtues that make up the bulk of his ethics. In the final part of the book Austin applies the causal approach to four contested issues in contemporary virtue theory: practical wisdom; virtue and the passions; the teleology (or ultimate end) of virtue; and infused moral virtues, exploring the relation between grace and virtue.

Abstract

"One of the most contentious developments in contemporary international affairs has been the increase in uses of force-short-of-war, such as targeted killings, limited airstrikes, and no-fly zones. On the one hand, uses of force-short-of-war appear more compartmentalized and containable, but on the other hand, they have encouraged a more frequent recourse to arms. How, then, are we to make moral sense of this shift toward the small-scale uses of force? This debate has divided just-war theorists, but author Christian Nikolaus Braun offers a new perspective. He evaluates comprehensively the ethics framework jus ad vim (the just use of force-short-of-war) as a pillar of just war theory and as a practical matter of deciding when military interventions below the level of war can and cannot be justified. The book's moral argument will rely on a historical reading of the just-war thought of Thomas Aquinas"--

Abstract

Voici l’histoire de la rencontre des trois monothéismes avec ce qui allait devenir la science. Non pas à partir d’une réflexion théorique, mais d’une histoire locale, concrète. Multiple choc, d’où sont sortis l’individualisme et la raison, c’est-à-dire ce qui fait l’essentiel de la civilisation occidentale. En un lieu réduit : en Espagne, au Maroc, en France et en Italie. En un moment limité : aux XIIe et XIIIe siècles. Seul lieu et seul moment de l’Histoire où ces quatre regards sur le monde se sont nourris avec tolérance les uns des autres, pour donner naissance au meilleur de ce que nous sommes. Autour de trois hommes : Averroès, Maïmonide, Thomas d’Aquin.
