LAUAND, Jean. Tomás de Aquino: filosofia e pedagogia. Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2012, vol.34, n.01, pp.11-18. ISSN 2178-5201.

This article discusses the connection between philosophy and education in Thomas Aquinas. In his Philosophical Anthropology there are three aspects very important for education today: the affirmation of matter as an essential in human being, the primacy of prudentia over the cardinal virtues and his philosophia negativa (and theologia negativa). The intrinsec union spirit-matter, anima forma corporis has important pedagogical consequences, both in intellectual and in moral education. And it is the basis for his Treatise On Prudence, which presupposes his negative perspective too.
