SUMMARY:Aquinas and the Life of the Mind
DESCRIPTION:Saint Thomas Aquinas regards mind\, or intellect\, as a form of life.  It is even the most perfect form\, he says\, because it carries the power of free choice. Yet we may wonder how free he thinks we really are.  For he insists that our mind’s life depends\, intimately\, on a cause outside itself.  But on his view\, freedom of choice would not even make sense without this cause; and our lives are fullest\, and freest\, when we focus more on it than on ourselves.  This is to follow the mind’s deepest urge\, which is toward that rather neglected virtue called wisdom. \n\nThis event is presented by the Virtue\, Happiness\, & the Meaning of Life Project\, made possible by a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation\, and co-sponsored by the University of Chicago Divinity School\,  Martin Marty Center\, and the Lumen Christi Institute. \nIf you need assistance in order to fully participate in this event\, contact Valerie Wallace. \nPhoto of detail of the Piazza di Santa Maria Novella by Sarah Tarno.
