Thomas Aquinas on Bodily Identity by Antonia Fitzpatrick
Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Antonia Fitzpatrick argues clearly throughout Thomas Aquinas on Bodily Identity that the Dominican saint never consistently achieves a coherent, unified understanding of the nature of the continuity of bod-ily matter across the human lifespan, death, and future resurrection. This inconsistency stems largely from Aquinas relying partly on Aris-totle and partly on Averroes’ commentary on the ancient philosopher without ever committing to either, the author comes to conclude . . .
