TH 672 - Natural Law in the Catholic Context

(3.00 cr.)

The development of natural law as a central mode of moral reflection in Catholicism is examined. The classical (Cicero) and biblical (wisdom literature, Paul) roots of natural law ethics are studied. Aquinas's Treatise on Law is the centerpiece of the course. Diverse contemporary Catholic natural law thinkers (Connery, Grisez, Finnis, McCormick, George) are studied.
