Logic and Truth in God | Fr Philip-Neri Reese OP | Thomistic Institute

A lecture by Fr Philip-Neri Reese OP, of the Angelicum, on: Logic and Truth in God, Nature and the Artificial. The lecture will address the following:

The standard accounts of Aquinas's theory of truth present him as a straightforward proponent of what is called "correspondence theory." In this talk, I aim to show not only that St. Thomas's theory of truth is far more nuanced than the standard account suggests, but also that it has surprising - and surprisingly interesting - consequences for logic and art.

Fr. Philip-Neri Reese, O.P. is currently a professor of philosophy at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum) in Rome, and he serves as the principle investigator for the Angelicum Thomistic Institute’s new Project on Philosophy and the Thomistic Tradition.

The lecture was hosted by the Thomistic Institute, Oxford.
