Peter A. Redpath, The Moral Psychology of St. Thomas Aquinas: An Introduction to Ragamuffin Ethics
Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Author Peter Redpath outlines a personalist Thomism, a philoso-phy for the acting person. He aims to correct what he sees as miscon-ceptions of St. Thomas’s teachings in large part due to Cartesian phi-losophy and the West’s deficient metaphysics. In personalist Thomism, “metaphysics and ethics are more than subjects of study;” “they are chiefly habits of the human soul, habits generated by an organizational and moral psychology” (21) . . .
