David Walsh: Person Means Relation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In Person Means Relation, David Walsh offers a moving reflection on personhood, beginning from the connection between person and relation established in the Trinitarian theology of St. Thomas Aquinas. Although Thomas did not apply this insight to persons more generally, Walsh argues, there is enough to suggest the path he might have taken. To know persons, we can now see, is to know what is going on within them. This understanding is largely the fruit of a later philosophical revolution, a fruit toward which Thomas may have pointed, and which he might well have welcomed.

The University of Dallas Aquinas Lecture for 2023, Person Means Relation is published here with a response by Matthew Walz and a reply by David Walsh.
