'He did not ask to be born into a time of philosophical disarray. But having been born into it, he met it like a man.'

Originally published in 1933, Saint Thomas Aquinas is a lively and entertaining portrait of one of the most significant Christian thinkers in history.

Effortlessly blending biography, philosophy and humour, Chesterton recounts with great imaginative depth the renowned Italian priest and theologist, Thomas Aquinas. Known as the 'Angelic Doctor', Aquinas was not just a scholar, but a passionate intellectual who was deeply in love with truth and natural theology. With his usual witty prose, Chesterton elegantly explores Aquinas's synthesis of faith and reason, his battles against heresy and his long-standing impact on Western thought and ideology. A spirited celebration of Aquinas and his work, Saint Thomas Aquinas remains one of Chesterton's most passionate and fascinating non-fiction works. This audiobook edition is expertly narrated by John Hastings. Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874 – 1936) was an English novelist, philosopher, journalist and critic. A Christian apologist, he is famed for creating the fictional priest-detective Father Brown. His writing was also renowned for his sense of humour: known as 'the prince of paradox', Chesterton often turned common sayings upside down. Admired by several of his literary contemporaries, Chesterton's work is still widely read today.
