Paper Summary:

This paper explores the philosophy and writings of Saint Thomas Aquinas. The author provides an in-depth discussion of Thomism, Aquinas' school of philosophical thought, and his most famous work, "Summa Theologae". The author also explains Aquinas' proofs of the existence of God, and touches on other writers and thinkers who have been influenced by Aquinas.

From the Paper:

"Before Thomas Aquinas was born, his future was allegedly fated. A holy hermit predicted to Aquinas' mother that her son would "enter the Order of Friars Preachers, and so great will be his learning and sanctity that in his day no one will be found to equal him". In Aquinas' forty-nine year life, he fulfilled this prophecy."
