ŚW. TOMASZA Z AKWINU CHARAKTERYSTYKA AKTÓW WOLI
Journal Title: Studia Gilsoniana - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
The article attempts to clarify an important aspect of St. Thomas Aquinas’s theory of human action, namely to show these acts of man which are immediately caused by the will. Accord-ing to some contemporary philosophers, the acts of the will are limited to those of trying or of intending. Do they exhaust the whole possibility of the will to act? The author seeks to answer this question basing his considerations on the analysis of the Summa Theologiae by St. Thomas Aquinas.
