“Charity’s Knowledge: The Relationship Between Knowledge and Love in Aquinas’ Account of Human Action” (60 min. Video) presented by: Michael S. Sherwin, O.P., is Associate Professor of Fundamental Moral Theology at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. He is the author of By Knowledge and by Love: Charity and Knowledge in the Moral Theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, for which he received the 2006 Charles Cardinal Journet Prize from Ave Maria University’s Aquinas Center for Theological Renewal. Alasdair MacIntyre says of Fr. Sherwin’s By Knowledge and By Love, “Sherwin has provided a wonderfully illuminating study of the development and structure of Aquinas’ thought on these matters. Both as a guide to recent scholarship and as an insightful account of what is philosophically and theologically at stake, this is an excellent book.”
