Logic and Truth in God, Nature and the Artificial
The standard accounts of Aquinas’s theory of truth present him as a straightforward proponent of what is called “correspondence theory.” In this talk, I aim to show not only that St. Thomas’s theory of truth is far more nuanced than the standard account suggests, but also that it has surprising – and surprisingly interesting – consequences for logic and art.
