Produktbeschreibung
For Thomas Aquinas, whose conception of Natural Law forms the foundation for this book, the ontological and ethical orders are not autonomous but inseparable. His ethical system is an ontological morality, in which ethical or practical wisdom must be understood as an extension of metaphysical on speculative wisdom.Most modern philosophers, by contrast, consider these two orders to be entirely separate.
