In his preface to ST. THOMAS AQUINAS, Jacques Maritain writes:
This work is not an exposition of Thomist doctrine. Rather, it is an attempt to bring to light certain essential aspects of the personality and work of the Angelic Doctor. For it is not of a medieval Thomism, but of a lasting and present Thomism that I speak.
With this view in mind St. Thomas Aquinas emerges, not as a figure of peculiar relevance to the medieval tradition as such, but as an intellectual and spiritual figure of emormous contemporaneity. Peter O'Reilly retranslated ST. THOMAS AQUINAS and brought its appendices up to date.
