Excerpt from Dante and AquinasThe purpose of this book is, in the first instance, to bring out this special significance of Dante's work by helping to throw out its distinctive features against the background of the accepted and authoritative exposition of the received philo sophy and theology of his time, while at the same time enriching his utterances by relating them to the implications and presuppositions on which they are grounded. But I trust that the sketch of the scholastic philosophy, and especially of the teaching of Aquinas, necessarily subordinate as it is, may have some independent value, and may be found useful to many whose interest, or at the lowest curiosity, has been roused in relation to mediaeval philosophy, and who do not know where to turn for a disinterested and popular treat ment of the subject free from all propagandis't or polemical intention.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Dante's Ten Heavens: A Study of the Paradiso In this second edition portions have been largely revised, but the work as a whole remains the same. I have mainly followed Witte's text of the Divina Commedia, though not invariably. The Minor Works, with the exception of one or two passages from the Canzoni, are quoted from the Oxford Dante. The translation of the De Monarchia quoted is always Mr. Church's; that of the Divina Commedia is for the most part Longfellow's, excepting where no name is appended. The Convivio is my own, though it owes much to Miss Hillard's version, which I had adopted in the first edition. For the Second Part of the Summa Theologiea I have frequently availed myself of the abbreviated version in Aquinas Ethi cus. The appended list of books is not a complete bibliography, but merely represents the works more frequently consulted or found more helpful.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III THE MIGRATIONS OF ARISTOTLE AND THE TRANSFORMATIONS OF ARISTOTELIANISM We are now to follow the fates of Aristotle and Aristotelianism, and as we shall remain throughout in much closer contact with Aristotle's actual works than we did or could with Plato's in the last chapter, it will be well to begin with a short survey of the extent and scope of Aristotle's extant works, or what pass as such. The history of his own manuscripts is a romance in itseif. They lay for a hundred and fifty years in a damp and wormy cellar in the Troad, and it is impossible to determine from the accounts that have come down to us in what relation they stood when recovered to the manuscripts current in the Aristotelian school at Athens; and it remains uncertain to this day what is the real origin of the text we now possess. Editors have been recurrently haunted by the idea that many of the existing discrepancies and difficulties it presents may be due to combination in our present corpus Aristotelicum of two different recensions. Further, there is the greatest difficulty in harmonising or even relating the early lists of Aristotle's works and characterisations of his style with the works that we now know. These matters 44 however need not much trouble us, for long before the period with which we are concerned the Aristotelian text had been fixed much as we have it now, and though certain palpably spurious works were sometimes current under his name, we shall not have to deal with them; so we may assume the canon as well as the text with which we are familiar. What, then, is the scope of Aristotle's work? In the first place there is the Organon--the group of treatises on which formal logic has rested ever since. They are an exposition of the art and...

Excerpt from Dante as Philosopher, Patriot, and Poet: With an Analysis of the Divina Commedia, Its Plot and Episodes Meantime, the burgher Class and the peasantry were rapidly becoming a power in the State; the limits Of the World were widened through the voyages of Marco Polo and other Italians ideas were enlarged, and com merce extended; and while the human mind began to vindicate its independence, through the opposition of the Albigenses to the traditions of the papacy, as well as through the W, the Uni versities of Paris and Bologna became centres of learn ing and genius; science and theology were illustrated by the great names of Roger Bacon, St. Bonaventura, and Thomas Aquinas, and art found its highest expres sion in the cathedrals of Antwerp and Cologne.

Excerpt from Dante's Divina Commedia: Its Scope and Value Of the result of his inquiry we will trace a brief outline. The subject-matter of the poem is the redemption of sinful man, and his ascent, by grace and repentance, from earth to heaven. Hell puts before us the sinner obdurate and chas tised Purgatory the penitent absolved, and advancing in virtue Paradise the summit gained, and the reward of those who persevere. The idea in its development embraces the whole circle of Catholic theology, demonstrated according to the scholastic method of Dante's time, but expressed in form and language solely his own. Reason and faith, freewill and grace, the State and the Church, and their mutual relations the three kingdoms of nature, grace, and glory, and each in detail - man, sinning, repentant, and triumphantmall these fall within the range of the poet's vision. What that vision shows he recounts and describes as it is seen. In his own complex being, in the problems of the schools and of theology, in the world visible and invisible, mysteries deep and unfathomable arrest his thought; but he rejects as puerile and unworthy any temptation to doubt; where reason fails, he behaves and adores. Nay, the very fact that God is incomprehensible, that His decrees and works are alike inscrutable, is to him a cause not of despondency but of thanksgiving. He delights to prostrate himself, in his ignorance and nothin guess, before his Creator, all wise and all perfect, and then by a single act of love to Span the infinite and be one with his God.

Excerpt from The Teachings of Dante One hot summer's morning several years ago, wishing to make more enjoyable a day of leisure, I searched through a friend's library for an interesting book to take into the woods. Most of the volumes, being upon theology and philosophy, appeared too dry and heavy. Finally, I selected Longfellow's translation of Dante's "Inferno," for the three-fold reason that I had little knowledge of the illustrious Italian, the book itself was attractive, and the title seemed to accord with the heat of the day. No sooner, however, had I begun to read than indolence changed to an absorbed attention. The uniqueness of the theme, the vividness of Dante's pictures, the beauty of Longfellow's translation fascinated me. The book became a constant companion during the summer, and when the work of the year began the spell of Dante's great personality was upon me.
