A Philosophy of Poetry: Based on Thomistic Principles is a book written by John Duffy that explores the relationship between poetry and philosophy. The book is based on the principles of Saint Thomas Aquinas, a prominent philosopher and theologian of the Middle Ages. Duffy argues that poetry and philosophy are not mutually exclusive, but rather, they complement each other. He asserts that poetry can provide a unique perspective on philosophical concepts and can help to make abstract ideas more accessible and relatable. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of poetry and philosophy. Duffy examines the role of language in both poetry and philosophy, the relationship between beauty and truth, and the importance of imagination in both disciplines. He also discusses the ways in which poetry can be used to explore ethical and moral issues. Throughout the book, Duffy draws on examples from a wide range of poets and philosophers, including Aristotle, Dante, and Shakespeare. A Philosophy of Poetry: Based on Thomistic Principles is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the intersection between poetry and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
