The Summa Theologica of Thomas Aquinas for Android

The Summa Theologiae was written between 12651274 and is also known as the Summa Theologica. It is the best-known work of Thomas Aquinas (12251274). Although unfinished, the Summa is "one of the classics of the history of philosophy and o

ne of the most influential works of Western literature." It was intended as a guide for theology students, seminarians and the educated laity. It is a compendium of all of the major theological teachings of the Catholic Church. It presents the reasoning for almost all points of Christian theology in the West. The Summa's topics follow a cycle: God; Creation, Man; Man's purpose; Christ; the Sacraments; and back to God.

Aquinas cites a range of Christian, Muslim, Hebrew, and Pagan sources including but not limited to Christian Sacred Scripture, Aristotle, Augustine of Hippo, Avicenna, Averroes, Al-Ghazali, Boethius, John of Damascus, Paul the Apostle, Dionysius the Areopagite, Maimonides, Anselm, Plato, Cicero, and Eriugena.
