Fr. Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P., explains why Thomism is the solution to the present crisis of Modernism in the Church. The problem: The indications of the current crisis in the Church have "been not of a crisis of faith, but of a very grave malady of the intellect, which conducts itself on the tracks of liberal Protestantism and through relativism to absolute skepticism." Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange's solution: Thomism. "Thomism corresponds to the profound needs of the modern world because it restores the love of truth for the sake of truth itself. Now, without this love of truth for itself, it is not possible to obtain true infused charity, the supernatural love of God for the sake of God Himself, nor to arrive at the infused contemplation of God sought for Himself, that is, at the contemplation that proceeds from the living faith enriched by the gifts of the Holy Spirit, first of all, knowledge and wisdom."

I present the sixth volume of the Introduction to Thomistic Metaphysics. On this occasion, I deal with the topic of Essence and Existence. The distinguishing feature of Aquinas' metaphysics, as compared to Aristotle's, lies precisely in the approach and resolution of this matter. Whereas Aristotle relied on substance (ousia) to explain being, St. Thomas relies on the act of existing (esse) which, in composition with essence (essentia), gives the entity the fullness of being: existence. This thesis is controversial even within Thomism. The eminent French philosopher Etienne Gilson played a decisive role in teaching this doctrine. His contributions have made it possible to rediscover the Angelic Doctor's thought, generating a legitimate advance faithful to the Thomistic tradition. The topics are divided into 12 chapters preceded by an Introduction, as follows: 1-De ente et essentia. 2-Essence and existence in Aristotle. 3-Islamic philosophy. 4-Thomistic essence: definition. 5-Thomistic essence in compound substances. 6-Thomistic essence in simple substances. 7-The two modes of the essence in simple substances. 8-Essence in accidents. 9-Thomistic act of existing (actus essendi): definition. 10-The real distinction essence-existence. 11-The form and the actus essendi. 12-God. I add at the end an Epilogue and corresponding Notes. References to recognized authors are numerous, as always.

A small error at the outset can lead to great errors in the final conclusions, as the Philosopher says in I De Caelo et Mundo cap. 5 (271b8-13), and thus, since being and essence are the things first conceived of by the intellect, as Avicenna says in Metaphysicae I, cap. 6, in order to avoid errors arising from ignorance about these two things, we should resolve the difficulties surrounding them by explaining what the terms being and essence each signify and by showing how each may be found in various things and how each is related to the logical intentions of genus, species, and difference. Since we ought to acquire knowledge of simple things from composite ones and come to know the prior from the posterior, in instructing beginners we should begin with what is easier, and so we shall begin with the signification of being and proceed from there to the signification of essence.

This book puts before the reader a succinct and philosophically valid interpretation of St. Thomas Aquinas' arguments for the existence of God by a modern, historically grounded interpreter of his thought. Father Joseph Owens is well known for the exacting care with which he prepares his articles and the solid scholarly apparatus with which he supports them. His knowledge of Greek, Latin, Aristotelian, as well as the Thomistic corpus is profound, and he is conversant with the various interpretative traditions within Aristotelianism and Thomism in ancient, medieval, and modern times in their appropriate languages. This volume will challenge the reader, yet it includes everything to help comprehend the position of St. Thomas Aquinas on this central issue.
