Introduction
I. The Works of St. Thomas Aquinas
St. Thomas Aquinas' career as a teacher and writer covered a period of more than twenty years (1252-1274). The writings of St. Thomas may be classified as theological works, commentaries, Opuscula or short treatises, and Quaestiones Disputatae. The following might be mentioned among the theological writings: the commentaries on the Gospels (1252-1254); the commentaries on the Sentences of Peter Lombard (1254-1256); the Summa Contra Gentiles (1260); the Summa Theologiae (1265-1272, which was left unfinished); the Compendium Theologiae (1272). The commentaries include those on Boethius, the De Trinitate and the De Hebdomadibus (1257-1258); on Dionysius, De Divinis Nominibus (about 1261); on the Liber de Causis (1268); on Aristotle, including parts of the Organon, the Physics, On the Heavens, On Generation and Corruption, Metaphysics, On the Soul, Nicomachean Ethics, Politics (1260-1272). Among the Opuscula or short treatises, some of the more prominent are the De Ente et Essentia (about 1252); De Aeternitate Mundi; De Unitate Intellectus; De Substantiis Separatis (the last three written during the years 1268-1272). The Quaestiones Disputatae (1256-1272) is comprised of eleven treatises, the lengthiest and perhaps most important being the De Veritate and the De Potentia.
Scholars have also grouped the works of St. Thomas according to three phases of his life. The first phase of St. Thomas' life is referred to as the first sojourn in Paris. This phase comprises two periods: the period of his baccalaureate (1252-1256); the period of his activity as Master at the University of Paris (1256-1259). The principal work composed during his baccalaureate was the Commentary on the Sentences, and the most developed writing as Master at the University of Paris (1256-1259) was the Quaestiones Disputatae De Veritate. The second phase of St. Thomas' life is called the sojourn in Italy (1259-1268). During this period St. Thomas wrote the Summa Contra Gentiles and some of the commentaries on the work of Aristotle. The Summa Theologiae dates from about 1265 to the time of his death. Parts of the Quaestiones Disputatae were written in Italy, namely, the De Spiritualibus Creaturis, the De Potentia and the De Anima. Finally, five Quodlibeta are also assigned to this Italian period. The third phase of St. Thomas' life is called the second sojourn in Paris (1268-1274). During this period St. Thomas wrote some commentaries

II. Authenticity of the Disputed Questions
The Disputed Questions is a compilation of eleven distinct treatises or 510 disputations in the form of articles covering a variety of subject matter and a wealth of scholarly and penetrating analyses. The treatises are the following: the De Veritate (1256-1259), which contains twenty-nine questions and 253 disputations; the De Potentia (1265-1267), ten questions and 83 disputations; the De Spiritualibus Creaturis (1266-1272), one question and 11 disputations; the De Anima (after 1265), one question and 21 disputations; the De Virtutibus in Communi (1269-1272), one question and 13 disputations; the De Caritate (1269-1272), one question and 13 disputations; the De Unione Verbi Incarnati (1269-1272), one question and five disputations; the
