Summary

Thomas Aquinas was one of the most significant Christian thinkers of the middle ages and ranks among the greatest philosophers and theologians of all time. The 'Quodlibetal Questions' are his edited records of the public debates over which he presided at the University of Paris in the mid-thirteenth century. They contain Aquinas's treatment of hundreds of questions on a very wide range of philosophical and theological topics, all of which were chosen by his live audience. As such, Aquinas's questions provide a window onto the interests at the time, and contain some of Aquinas's fullest or only treatments of questions of interest both then and now.--
