The Degrees of Knowledge
(Volume VII)
In The Degrees of Knowledge, Jacques Maritain provides a
panorama of human intellectual activity, first distinguishing
philosophy of nature and experimental science, making clear the
distinctiveness of metaphysics, writing with authority of the mystical
life as different from all of the above, and, in the very course of
making these distinctions, showing how they are hierarchically related
and united. It is a magnificent and sapiential achievement. It has
rightly been called Maritain's Summa.
The Degrees of Knowledge better than any other single work of
Maritain, displays the comprehensiveness and range of his interests.
Its author takes his inspiration from Thomas Aquinas, reargues his
basic positions in the light of the problems posed for them in the
twentieth century, and ends by writing a profoundly original work.
