Abstract

This monograph presents itself as an account of the various roles played by notions of participation in Aquinas’s Summa contra Gentiles. Lazzaro intends that the study be one of a series which will track these notions through the whole of the Thomist corpus. To judge by his repeated references, Lazzaro seems also to conceive this project as a confirmation and amplification of the accounts already given by Cornelio Fabro. It is not entirely clear what Lazzaro intends to add to Fabro—perhaps further "documentation," perhaps a few nuances of interpretation.
