Happiness by St. Thomas Aquinas is a philosophical treatise that explores the nature of true happiness and how it can be attained. Aquinas, a renowned theologian and philosopher of the 13th century, argues that true happiness is not found in material possessions or worldly pleasures, but rather in the pursuit of virtue and living a life in accordance with God's will.The book is divided into three parts, with each part delving deeper into the concept of happiness. In the first part, Aquinas defines happiness and distinguishes it from other forms of pleasure and contentment. He argues that happiness is the ultimate end goal of human existence and that it can only be achieved through a life of virtue and moral excellence.In the second part, Aquinas explores the different virtues that are necessary for achieving happiness, including prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. He discusses how these virtues can be cultivated through practice and how they contribute to a life of fulfillment and satisfaction.In the final part, Aquinas discusses the role of God and faith in achieving happiness. He argues that true happiness can only be attained through a relationship with God and living a life in accordance with his teachings.Overall, Happiness by St. Thomas Aquinas is a profound and insightful work that offers a timeless perspective on the nature of happiness and how it can be achieved. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the pursuit of a meaningful and fulfilling life.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Thomas Aquinas Philosophical Texts, by St. Thomas Aquinas .
