Prefatory Remarks
This translation was originally undertaken at the request of Mother Margaret Reilly, R.S.C.J., president of Barat College of the Sacred Heart in Lake Forest, Illinois. Its completion is due in great part to her kind encouragement but most of all to the unfailing and unstinted work of my collaborator, Father John J. Wellmuth, S.J., formerly chairman of the Department of Philosophy at Loyola University in Chicago and now filling a like post at Xavier University in Cincinnati. To him I am greatly indebted for numerous elucidations of the thought of St. Thomas, much helpful criticism, and innumerable suggestions for more felicitous turns of phrase. During the time of our work together the entire manuscript was revised and every effort was made to keep the style of the translation as close to that of the original as the exigencies of the English language permit.
The translation has been made from the critical text of Father Leo Keeler.1 That editor's notes have also been incorporated. The arrangement of these has been faithfully preserved, including the references at the beginning of the notes on each Article to other works of St. Thomas as well as to those of other Christian writers and ancient or mediaeval philosophers where the same problems as are handled in the Articles are also discussed. All other references, after being carefully checked and corrected occasionally where typographical errors had occurred in the Keeler text, have been left within brackets in the body of the translation. English words within parentheses owe their presence to the parentheses used in Father Keeler's text. Wherever Latin words occur in the body of the translation, they have been taken from the Latin text to clarify the translation where that seemed advisable.
