Deep dives
The concept of the real and its connection to Aristotle and Catholic thinking
In this podcast episode, the speaker discusses the concept of the real as used by D.C. Schindler in his book. He explains how Schindler refers to an earlier type of real that emphasizes the thingness of each thing, drawing from Aristotle's understanding of the world as providing forms and standards for truth and what works. Schindler, as a Catholic thinker, is influenced by Aristotle through Aquinas and believes that the Christian tradition, which combines Greek natural law, Roman institutions, and Jewish theological perspective, safeguards the thingness of things. This challenges modernity and liberalism for breaking up the tools needed to perceive reality and the common good.
