Wisdom And Love In Saint Thomas Aquinas by Étienne Gilson
A concise philosophical study of how Aquinas unites wisdom and charity, showing that true wisdom is more than speculation: it is a connatural judgment of divine things born of love. It maps the interplay of intellect and will, distinguishing philosophical and theological wisdom from the gift of wisdom perfected by charity, and situates this synthesis within a metaphysics of being ordered to beatitude. The result is a portrayal of contemplation culminating in loving union with God, where knowledge leads to love and love, in turn, deepens and perfects knowledge and the moral life.
