LO BELLO Y LA BELLEZA EN EL COMENTARIO TOMASINO AL DE DIVINIS NOMINIBUS

Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

While St. Thomas Aquinas has not written any separate treaty on beauty, the theme of beauty regularly appears in his writing from its very beginning as that which corresponds with the Platonic doctrine presented by Dionysius the Areopagite in his De Divinis Nominibus. The article is focused on three essential elements in Aquinas’ doctrine on beauty: 1) its identity with the subject, 2) its difference from the reason, and 3) its difference from the good.
