Abstract

Transcendental Thomism aimed at bridging the gap that separated the thought of Aquinas from the Kantian idealism that dominated Continental philosophy. For Transcendental Thomism, Aquinas’s thought could complete the ‘transcendental turn to the subject’ initiated by Kant. A ‘critique of knowledge’ undertaken as laying bare ‘the conditions of possibility of knowledge,’ reveals the forms and categories of human knowledge, but not the possibilities of objective knowledge. Such objective knowledge would be possible only on the basis of intellectual intuition, and since he discerned no such intuition, Kant discounted the objectivity of human knowledge. Transcendental Thomism maintained that Kant became an idealist because he was not consistent in his own transcendental reflection on the a priori condition of human knowledge. Knowing is an operation, a movement, a tendency toward an end. It insisted that a critique of knowledge revealed the objective dynamism of human knowledge, culminating in objective judgments of existence. In other words, authentic subjectivity leads to objectivity.
