5.21 St. Thomas Aquinas: The Angelic Doctor

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) - Student of St. Albert the Great, and friend of St. Bonaventure, St. Thomas Aquinas brought theology and scholastic philosophy together in a way that remains the standard of Catholic thought to this day. In some ways, St. Thomas can be thought of as a second Augustine, who arguably even surpassed the great father of the Church, and brought Augustine's teaching to a more perfect culmination. Links Three of St. Thomas' academic sermons are available as audio books on the Catholic Culture website: Beware of the False Heaven and Earth Will Pass Send Out Your Spirit Also, check out this interview that St. Thomas' namesake - Thomas Mirus - did on the Catholic Culture Podcast with Matthew Minerd, about the education St. Thomas received and his responsibilities as a master of theology and his academic milieu: The Classics of Western Spirituality volume on Albert & Thomas : And, if you haven't already, check out the episodes on St. Thomas' teacher and mentor, St. Albert the Great, on this Way of the Fathers podcast: Episode 5.17 St. Albert the Great: Universal Doctor : Episode 5.18 St. Albert the Great: The Miracle of His Time : SIGN UP for Catholic Culture's Newsletter: DONATE at: Dr. Papandrea's Homepage: Dr. Papandrea's latest book is The Original Church: What it Meant - and Still Means - to Be a Christian : Dr. Papandrea's YouTube channel, The Original Church : Theme Music: Gaudeamus (Introit for the Feast of All Saints), sung by Jeff Ostrowski.
