Contingency and Fortune in Aquinas's Ethics

About Contingency and Fortune in Aquinas's Ethics

Bowlin argues that Aquinas's account of the moral life can be understood only when attention is focused on his remarks about the effects of contingency and fortune upon virtue, agency and happiness. This study places Aquinas more precisely in the history of ethics, among Aristotle, Augustine, and the Stoics.
