Thomistic Common Sense: The Philosophy of Being and the Development of Doctrine

Réginald Garrigou-Lagrange

4.9/5 (31083 ratings)

Description:Despite living in an "information age," we are confronted by the clash of ideologies and a crisis of universal knowledge. The Church is not unaffected by the world's weariness and similarly faces what Fr. Mauro Gagliardi describes as "the lack of truth, or perhaps better, the disinterest in it." Today's philosophical and doctrinal decline are the results of the loss of first principles and a relativistic view of doctrinal development.This first-time English translation of Fr. Réginald Garrigou-Lagrange's Le sens commun: La philosophie de l' être et les formules dogmatiques by the acclaimed translator Matthew Minerd couldn't come at a better time. This book sees the great Dominican master address a variety of fundamental topics that we need to return to and relearn in our day: the relationship between common sense and both philosophy and faith; the proper defense for philosophical realism; the subordination and coordination of philosophical first principles; our natural capacity for knowing God's existence; and, at length, the problem of dogmatic development.Although originally written during the Catholic Modernist crisis at the turn of the twentieth century, Thomistic Common Sense is no mere relic of past controversies. Jacques Maritain, for example, while reflecting on his formation as a Thomist, cited it as particularly influential. In our own time, this book serves as a foundational textbook of Thomistic philosophy, communicating its wisdom with clarity, power, and perennial resonance.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
