STATUTUL LUMII ÎN CONCEPȚIA LUI TOMA DIN AQUINO
WORLD STATUS IN THOMAS AQUINASʼCONCEPTION

Summary/Abstract: This article presents Thomas Aquinasʼ position in the controversy about eternity of the world, as it evolved along his following works: Scriptum super Sententiis, Summa contra Gentiles, Summa theologiae and De aeternitate mundi. It argues that the different theses proposed by Thomas in these works are not contradictory but complementary. The article shows that, during his life, the philosopher approached this issue from various points of view and thus he enriched it. It points out the fact that this is an example of how St. Thomasʼ thought, remaining broadly very consistent with itself, it nuances from itself one work to another, becoming more complex and deeper.
