Thomist Joyce
View through CrossRef
Through his Catholic upbringing and Jesuit education Joyce acquired an informal acquaintance with the philosophy and theology of St Thomas Aquinas. Although he rejected his Catholic faith, he remained committed to certain tenets of Aquinas’ philosophy, proclaiming that he was ‘steeled in the school of old Aquinas’. Aquinas inspired the aesthetic reflections which were his central concern in Portrait. One of Joyce’s main sources for Thomistic philosophy were the philosophical handbooks written by professors of philosophy at the historic Jesuit college at Stonyhurst in Lancashire in response to the papal encyclical Aeterni Patris promulgated by Pope Leo XIII in 1879 which encouraged a revival of interest in the philosophy and theology of Thomas Aquinas; these manuals were used in many courses at University College.
