Description

This volume gathers the central questions of Aquinas's Summa Theologica on prayer (II-II, q. 83) and on the contemplative life (II-II, qq. 179–182), translated by the Dominican Fathers of the English Province. Aquinas's treatment of these matters — patient, scholastic, structured by question and answer — has been continuously read by Dominicans, Carmelites, Jesuits, and every later school of Catholic spiritual theology. This edition reproduces the standard public-domain English text in full.
