Excerpt from La Perception Et la Psychologie Thomiste
Ici s'arrête la vie animale. Dans l'homme il y a quelque chose de plus, car, si l'âme humaine est la forme du coi ps, elle le dépasse'. Par suite, l'homme a une perfection nou velle, une faculté supérieure, qui n'est pas, comme les pré cedentes, l'acte d'un organe, c'est-à-dire dépendant essen tiellement dans son exercice de l'état de l'organe et lui conférant sa perfection propre. Outre la sensation, l'homme a la pensée, que produit l'intelligence. Mais, si indépendante de tout organe que soit par nature l'intelligence, elle aussi est liée intimement avec les forces précédentes. Dans l'état actuel et normal de l'homme, la sensation lui est une condi tion indispensable. Sans la sensation, l'intelligence n'aurait pas d'objet précis; elle ne pourrait accomplir aucun acte. Il y a donc des rapports étroits entre la sensation et la pensée. Ce sont ces rapports que nous voudrions étudier aujourd'hui.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed examination of the origin of ideas and knowledge, arguing that human understanding is not solely derived from sensory experience but rather involves a complex interplay between sensation and intellectual faculties. The author delves into historical and philosophical perspectives, particularly the influential ideas of St. Thomas Aquinas, to explore the nature of perception and the role of the mind in interpreting sensory input. The book challenges the notion that sensory experiences alone can account for our understanding of the world and contends that intellectual processes are essential for organizing and giving meaning to sensory data. Through a rigorous analysis of the relationship between sensation and thought, this book sheds new light on the nature of human cognition and the origins of our knowledge.
