Aquinas in English translation: A Bibliography
Thomas kept his Latin simple and straightforward, wanting nothing to come between
his readers and truth. Consequently, learning enough Latin to consult his works
in the original takes far less time and effort than learning to read Cicero
or Livy or Vergil. You can do it, and on-line resources can help. If not, here's
a bibliography of English translations.

Ad primum ergo dicendum quod, sicut dicit Augustinus in Enchiridio, Deus, cum sit summe bonus, nullo modo sineret aliquid mali esse in operibus suis, nisi esset adeo omnipotens et bonus, ut bene faceret etiam de malo. Hoc ergo ad infinitam Dei bonitatem pertinet, ut esse permittat mala, et ex eis eliciat bona. (S.T. I, q.2, a.3, ad 1) As Augustine says in the Enchiridion, "Since God is maximally good, He would not allow any evil to exist in His works if He were not powerful enough and good enough to draw good even from evil." Therefore, it is part of God's infinite goodness that He should permit evils and elicit goods from them. (S.T. I, q.2, a.3, ad 1) |
