  1. "The things that we love tell us what we are." - Thomas Aquinas (1225 AD to 1274 AD)

    Aquinas operated at the University of Paris. He famously synthesized Aristotelian philosophy with Christian doctrine, building a comprehensive system of natural law.

  3. a thing I miss about twitter is that I feel sure that, over there, I could post asking for help with my homework on Summa Contra Gentiles and have four Thomas scholars in my replies within the hour. Nevertheless, might as well try it here.

    Any #ThomasAquinas people here to help me? #SummaContraGentiles #Thomism #Scholasticism #Aquinas

  4. ‘[To Medieval philosophers and economic theorists t]he unpardonable sin is that of the speculator or the middleman, who snatches private gain by the exploitation of public necessities. The true descendant of the doctrines of Aquinas is the labor theory of value. The last of the Schoolmen was Karl Marx.’

  6. It seems some server issues of the last days call for a re-#introduction. Apologies for lost followings/posts!

    I am #DigitalHumanitites Coordinator at Max Planck Institute for #LegalHistory and #LegalTheory (lhlt.mpg.de/) in Frankfurt/M., supporting projects in all their digital needs: #DigitalEdition, #NLP, #GraphDatabases, #DataModeling, #LOD, #RSE - Jack of all trades, master of none.

    Also, I am philosopher by training with a focus on legal, political and social philosophy and their histories. #DiscourseTheory, #PostPhenomenology, #Deconstruction, #EarlyModernity. I study the development of #SocialTheory in Spanish #Scholasticism. I'm collaborator in both my "digital" and my "philosophical" roles to The School of Salamanca project (salamanca.school/) of the Academy of Sciences and Literature, Mainz.

    Tooting mostly about work, some politics and occasionally just funny things.

    Find Pronouns and Orcid in my profile.
    (I have the same handle on the birdsite.)

  8. CW: Genre theory

    New rule on the bird site requiring #genre labels for #parody and who knows what next is giving late-stage #scholasticism, like Mathieu de Vendôme or Geoffrey de Vinsauf and their treatises on 29 colors of rhetoric

    (Big #Medieval energy here)
