in knowing). It should not be held that John of St. Thomas is too difficult for beginners. As you say in your introduction “It is the privilege of a patient teacher to become less and less difficult to follow as the work of teaching goes on. A beginner who refuses to be discouraged by initial difficulties will soon notice that things are no longer so hard, and by that time he has already learned a great deal. The style of the translation, which will be of great help to beginners, will also play a significant part on the level of advanced research. Trained logicians, including those who have access to the Latin text, will notice that your sharp and graphic expressions often bring about helpful insights into obscure issues and a fresh understanding of familiar ones. You remark that “intense and luminous life may find expression in scholastic language.” In spite of the known difficulty of trans- lating scholastic language into a vernacular, I expect that through this translation the quiet ardor of intellectual life that we admire so much in the Courses of John of St. Thomas will endear itself to many readers.
