LibriVox recording of Summa Theologica, Prima Pars,
by Thomas Aquinas. Read by Jim Ruddy.
The Summa Theologica (or the Summa Theologiae or simply the
Summa, written between 1265 and 1274) is the most famous
work of Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225-1274) although it was never
finished. It was intended as a manual for beginners as a
compilation of all of the main theological teachings of that
time. It summarizes the reasonings for almost all points of
Christian theology in the West, which, before the Protestant
Reformation, subsisted solely in the Roman Catholic Church.
The Summa's topics follow a cycle: the existence of God,
God's creation, Man, Man's purpose, Christ, the Sacraments,
and back to God.(Summary adapted from the Wikipedia)
This is part one of the Prima Pars (first part, or volume),
consisting of the Initial Questions.
