Description
The 4th of March 2024 marked the 750th anniversary of the death of Thomas Aquinas. This is a good occasion to remember a theologian, Doctor of the Church and Dominican who has never been forgotten and is as present in the intellectual world today as ever! This volume of essays aims to take an interdisciplinary approach to Aquinas in order to shed light on his work using different hermeneutics. The contributors come from a range of disciplines, theological and faith perspectives as well as from a number of different countries.
