Prefatory
The Aristotelian Society of Marquette University each year invites a scholar to deliver a lecture in honor of St. Thomas Aquinas. Customarily delivered on the Sunday nearest March 7th, the feast day of the Society's patron saint, these lectures are called the Aquinas lectures.
In 1947, after Dr. Vernon Bourke delivered a lecture, "St. Thomas and the Greek Moralists," on March 9 the Society invited another scholar, whose duties do not permit him to come to the University on the customary date, to give another Aquinas lecture in the fall. It now has the pleasure of recording that lecture, given Oct. 26, by tienne Gilson of the Acadmie Franaise.

tienne Henri Gilson was born June 13, 1884 at Paris. He received his Agrg in 1907 and became Docteur-s-Lettres in 1913. At the Sorbonne he was a pupil of Lucien Levy-Bruhl who taught him historical method and suggested the study of Descartes' borrowings from Scholasticism, a work which led him to St. Thomas Aquinas and the middle ages, the principal concern of his scholarly career. He was also a pupil, at the Collge de France, of Henri Bergson, "whose lectures" he recently said "still remain in my memory as so many hours of intellectual transfiguration," and whom he calls "the only living master in philosophy'' he ever had.
In 1913 he taught at the University of Lille. During the first world war he was a machine-gunnery captain in the French army, was captured at Verdun and spent his time in a German prisoner of war camp writing and studying. After the war, in

1919, he joined the faculty of the University of Strasbourg. In 1921 he returned to the Sorbonne, this time to teach, and remained there until 1932 when he was elected to the Collge de France. He is now Professor of the Philosophy of the Middle Ages at the Collge de France. In 1929 he also became Director of Studies and Professor of the History of Mediaeval Philosophy at the newly established Institute of Mediaeval Studies, Toronto, Canada, of which he is a co-founder and which in 1939 was raised to a Pontifical Institute by Pius XII. He continues in those positions now. Ordinarily, he teaches in Toronto during the fall and returns to Paris at Christmas time.
Professor Gilson has held notable lectureships. In 1930 and 1931 he gave the Gifford Lectures at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland; in 1936-37 he gave the William James lectures at Harvard; in 1937, the Richards lectures at the University of
