COUNTERPOINT IN EXPLANATION OF ORIGINATIVE APPREHENSION
Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Originative apprehension often has been examined in recent decades in light of Aqui-nas’ reflections. Yet there has not always been agreement in regard to what constitutes such, often due to different emphases given by interpreters to aspects of St. Thomas’ analyses articulated in different contexts. Arguably, it is possible to reconcile certain seemingly divergent important interpretations by reflecting on an important, yet some-what recessive, theme that Thomas adverted to sparingly throughout his career in utiliz-ing analyses of predecessors to forge his own synthesis to explain cognition in terms of being that is centered on the reciprocal priorities of judging and concomitant incomplex abstracting.
