Dr. Robert Sweetman describes the Fall 2008 course "Nature, Supernature and Miracle in the Thought of Thomas Aquinas" Course Description: This seminar examines Thomas Aquinas's distinction between nature and the supernatural from the perspective of key texts in his Summa theologiae and its most important parallels. It does so in order to address the phenomenon of miracles and the role they play in his philosophical and theological construction. The seminar explores thereby the value of historiographical plotting of theoretical discourse at the intersection of perduring thought tradition(s) and current intellectual vogue. This is the first of a related pair of courses. Look for the Spring 2009 course "Albert the Great, Meister Eckhart and Women's Spirituality" Note: Course descriptions may not be up to date.
