Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Thomistic Wisdom Series: Reflections on Truth is enriched by this tenth volume, dedicated to Questions XXI and XXII of the monumental Quaestiones Disputatae de Veritate by Saint Thomas Aquinas. In this work, entitled The Truth. Volume X, the metaphysical and anthropological foundations of the good, the appetite for the good, and the will are explored with depth and clarity-central themes in Thomistic philosophy that strongly resonate with the contemporary search for meaning and truth. Question XXI: The Good addresses the relationship between being and the good, unraveling essential questions: Does the good add anything to being? Are they interchangeable in their real subjects? Is the good prior to truth in its essence? Through six articles, Saint Thomas examines whether every entity is good by the first goodness, whether the created good is such by its essence, and whether, as Saint Augustine affirms, the good of the creature resides in measure, species, and order. These reflections not only clarify the nature of the good, but also invite us to contemplate the intrinsic harmony of the universe from the perspective of divine goodness. In Question XXII: On the Appetite for the Good and the Will, the Angelic Doctor delves into the dynamism of creatures toward the good, with a special focus on the human will. The fifteen articles of this question analyze whether all things desire the good, whether they tend toward God as their ultimate end, and how the will operates in rational beings. Questions such as: Is the will distinct from the sensitive appetite? Does it will anything necessarily? Can God or any creature influence it?-reveal the complexity of human freedom. In addition, the interaction between will and intellect is explored, along with the nature of intention and choice, and the role of the will as the mover of the soul's powers. This volume, faithful to the spirit of the series, combines rigorous analysis with accessible exposition, allowing both specialized and non-specialized readers to enter into the richness of Thomistic wisdom. Each article contains a detailed explanation of Saint Thomas's arguments, complemented by references to his sources and the philosophical tradition. As an epilogue-characteristic of this series-a unique section is offered to consolidate learning. Written in a question-and-answer format, this epilogue invites the reader to review the key concepts of Questions XXI and XXII, facilitating the retention of complex ideas and fostering deeper understanding. This didactic tool reflects the series' commitment to the integral formation of the reader, following the pedagogical method of Aquinas himself. The Truth. Volume X is an essential work for those who wish to explore Saint Thomas's thought on the good and the will-topics that not only illuminate medieval philosophy but also offer answers to the ethical and existential concerns of modern man. With this volume, The Thomistic Wisdom Series reaffirms its purpose of spreading the intellectual and spiritual richness of the Angelic Doctor, guiding the reader toward a truth that transcends time.
