Saint Thomas Aquinas And Saint Francis Of Assisi by G.K. Chesterton
A celebratory pair of portraits that contrast two complementary medieval temperaments: one an austere, systematic thinker who embodies ordered reason, theological rigor, and fidelity to truth; the other a joyous, poetic rebel who embraces poverty, wonder, and intimate kinship with creation. Through lively biography, wit, and cultural critique, the writer shows how the Thomistic insistence on intellect and law and the Franciscan insistence on love and imagination balance and correct each other, together offering an antidote to modern materialism, skepticism, and spiritual complacency.
