The Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, also known as the Angelicum,[2] is the Dominican university of Rome, and one of the principal pontifical universities. As such, it is directly dependent on the Pope for its recognition as outlined in the Apostolic Constitution Sapientia Christiana,[3] which clarifies the parameters of Church authority and academic freedom. The Angelicum is administered by the Order of Preachers, and is staffed by both religious and lay professors. It serves as the major locus of the authentic Dominican Thomist theological and philosophical tradition among pontifical universities.
History
Medieval origins
The Angelicum has its roots in the Dominican mission to study and teach truth. More specifically its origin can be traced to the founding of the Dominican studium at the Convent of Santa Sabina at Rome around the year 1222. The distinctively pedagogical character of the Dominican charism as intended by St. Dominic de Guzman at the birth of the Order of Preachers in 1214 is succinctly expressed by the dictum contemplare et contemplata aliis tradere, "to contemplate and to bear the fruits of contemplation to others," which is a paraphrase of St. Thomas Aquinas' teaching on the perfection of the Dominican apostolate.[4] The Order of Preachers was approved in December, 1216 and January, 1217 by Pope Honorius III in the bulls Religiosam vitam and Nos attendentes. On January 21, 1217 Honorious issued the bull Gratiarum omnium[5] recognizing St. Dominic's followers as an Order dedicated to study and preaching. Within one month of this foundation Dominic had sent six of his followers to study at the cathedral school of Toulouse, and on August 15 seven of his followers were dispatched to the great university center of Paris to establish a priory focused on study and preaching. In May 1220 at Bologna the Order's first general chapter mandated that each new priory of the Order maintain its own studium conventuale thus laying the foundations of the Dominican tradition of sponsoring institutions of learning.[6] In response to this mandate the members of the Roman priory of Santa Sabina set up a studium around the year 1222 which flourished in the following centuries.[7]
At the general chapter of Valenciennes in 1259 Albert the Great and Thomas Aquinas took part in laying the foundations of a program of studies for novices and lectors to last eight years: two years of philosophy, two years of fundamental theology, Church history and canon law, and four years of theology. Those who showed capacity were sent on to a studium generale to complete this course becoming lector, magister studentium, baccalaureus, and magister theologiae.[8]
In February 1265 the newly elected Pope Clement IV summoned Aquinas to Rome to serve as papal theologian. That same year in accordance with the injunction of the Chapter of the Roman province of the Order of Preachers at Agnani, Aquinas was assigned as Regent Master at the studium at Santa Sabina Aquinas: “Fr. Thome de Aquino iniungimus in remissionem peccatorum quod teneat studium Rome, et volumus quod fratribus qui stant secum ad studendum provideatur in necessariis vestimentis a conventibus de quorum predicatione traxerunt originem. Si autem illi studentes inventi fuerint negligentes in studio, damus potestatem fr. Thome quod ad conventus suos possit eos remittere” (Acta Capitulorum Provincialium, Provinciae Romanae Ordinis Praedicatorum, 1265, n. 12).[9] Tolomeo da Lucca, an associate and early biographer of Aquinas, tells us that at the Santa Sabina studium Aquinas taught the full range of philosophical subjects, both moral and natural.[10] This experiment at Santa Sabina constituted the Order's first studium provinciale, an intermediate school between the studium conventuale and the studium generale. "Prior to this time the Roman Province had offered no specialized education of any sort, no arts, no philosophy; only simple convent schools, with their basic courses in theology for resident friars, were functioning in Tuscany and the meridionale during the first several decades of the order's life. But the new studium at Santa Sabina was to be a school for the province."[11]
It was while teaching at Santa Sabina that Aquinas began to compose his monumental work, the Summa theologiae, which he conceived of specifically as a work suited to beginning students: "Because a doctor of catholic truth ought not only to teach the proficient, but to him pertains also to instruct beginners. as the Apostle says in 1 Corinthians 3: 1-2, as to infants in Christ, I gave you milk to drink, not meat, our proposed intention in this work is to convey those things that pertain to the Christian religion, in a way that is fitting to the instruction of beginners."[12] At Santa Sabina Thomas composed the Prima Pars in its entirety and circulated it in Italy before departing to take up his second regency as professor at the University of Paris (1269–1272).[13] To this period while Aquinas was regent Master at the studium of Santa Sabina can be attributed an impressive list of other works including the Catena aurea in Marcum, the De rationibus fidei, the Catena aurea in Lucam, the Quaestiones disputate de potentia Dei, which convey the contents of disputations Aquinas held during this period at Santa Sabina,[14] the Quaestiones disputate de anima, which were held at Santa Sabina during the academic year 1265-66,[15] Expositio et lectura super epistolas Pauli Apostoli, the Compendium theologiae, the Responsio de 108 articulis, part of the Quaestiones disputatae de malo, the Catena aurea in Ioannem, the De regno ad regem Cypri, the Quaestiones disputatae de spiritualibus creaturis, and at least the first book of the Sententia Libri De anima, Aquinas' commentary on Aristotle's De anima, the translation of which from the Greek was completed by Aquinas' Dominican associate at Viterbo William of Moerbeke in 1267.[16]
Nicholas Brunacci [1240-1322] was among Aquinas' students at the Santa Sabina studium and later at Paris. In November 1268 he was with Aquinas and his associate and secretary Reginald of Piperno, as they left Viterbo on their way to Paris to begin the academic year.[17] Brunacci was called "the second Thomas Aquinas" by Albert the Great, his teacher at Cologne after 1272.[18] Other students of Aquinas' at the Santa Sabina studium included Blessed Tommasello da Perugia,[19] and Annibaldo degli Annibaldi (1230c.-1272c.), who after completing his preliminary studies was sent to the studium generale at Paris c. 1255.[20]
The chronicles of the churches of San Domenico at Perugia and San Domenico at Orvieto attest that the Santa Sabina studium played the special role of frequently providing papal theologians from among its members. Jacob of Ranuccio, who was lector at Santa Sabina, served in the Roman Curia and was made a bishop in 1286.[21] Hugh Aycelin, also known as Hughes of Billom of the French province of the Order also served as a lector at Santa Sabina and was made bishop in 1294.[22] Similarly, Nicholas Brunacci [1240-1322], a former student of Aquinas at the Santa Sabina studium and at the University of Paris,[17] later was lector at Santa Sabina, and served in the papal curia.[23]
With the departure of Aquinas for Paris in 1268 and the passage of time, the principal pedagogical activities of the Order at Rome were distributed between the Santa Sabina studium and the priory Convent of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, which had a modest beginning in 1255, but which grew rapidly in size and importance.[24] In 1288 Santa Maria sopra Minerva was designated a studium particularis theologiae,[25] and in 1291 the Santa Sabina studium was redesignated as one of three studia nove logice focusing on the logica nova, the texts of Aristotle's logical corpus that were recovered in the West only in the second half of the 12th century.[26] Giovanni Zocco da Spoleto was a student of logic at the Santa Sabina studiuim in 1331[27] Bartolomeo da San Concordio, author of the Summa de casibus coscientiae (1338) was appointed lector at the Santa Maria sopra Minerva studium in 1299.[28] In 1305 the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva became one of four studia naturarum established in the Roman province.[29] In that year Jacopo da Varazze served as lector there,[30] as did Giovanni da San Gemignano, author of Sermones dominicales, pro adventu, Quadragesimale, Sermones de sanctis, de mortuis.[31] In 1305 at the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva Fr. Angelo of Orvieto taught Aristotle's Metaphysics and De anima along with its commentaries.[32] Paolo di Aliotto da Narni was lector at Santa Maria sopra Minerva in 1313.[33] Niccolò da Prato (+1321) served as lector at the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva.[34] Ambrogio da Chianciano (+1339) was lector there,[35] as was Tancredi dei Beccari da Orvieto.[36] Iacopo Passavanti, after finishing his studies in Paris c. 1333 was lector at the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva.[37] In 1338 Stefano da Rieti[38] and Giovanni dall’Incisa (+1348)[39] were lectors at the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva.
Modern development
In 1304 the Order's general chapter commanded that each of the Order's provinces establish a studium generale in order to meet the demand of its rapidly growing membership.[40] The studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva served in this capacity for the Roman Province from 1426 to 1539.[41] In 1507 Antonio Caramanico was appointed regent master of the studium generale.[42] On 12 May 1512, the Master of the Order Thomas de Vio (Cajetan) appointed Gaspare da Perugia (1465–1531) regent master of the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva.[43] In 1539 during the general chapter at Rome Bartolomé Carranza de Miranda was awarded the title of Master of Sacred Theology by the studium.[44] Giacomo Nacchiante (1502–1596) taught philosophy and theology at the College of St. Thomas in the mid 1550s.[45] In 1570 the first edition of Aquinas' opera omnia, the so-called editio Piana, would be produced there.[46]
The late sixteenth century would see the studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva undergo further transformation. Aquinas, who had been canonized in 1323 by Pope John XXII, was proclaimed the fifth doctor of the Church by Dominican Pope Pius V in 1567. To honor this great doctor, in 1577 Msgr. Juan Solano, O.P., former bishop of Cusco, Peru, generously funded the reorganization of the studium at Santa Maria Sopra Minerva on the model of the College of St. Gregory at Valladolid in his native Spain.[47] The features of this Spanish model included a fixed number of Dominican students admitted on the basis of intellectual merit who were dedicated exclusively to study in virtue of numerous dispensations from other duties, and who were governed by an elected Rector.[48] The result of Solano's initiative was the College of Saint Thomas (Latin: Collegium Divi Thomæ) at Santa Maria sopra Minerva. The college cultivated the doctrines of St. Thomas Aquinas as a means of carrying out the Church's mission in the New World, where personalities like Bartolomé de las Casas, Pedro de Cordova, and Francisco de Vitoria were already engaged.[49]
Diego Alvarez (1550 c.-1635) was professor of theology there from 1596 to 1606.[50] Isidoro Aliaga, (1565–1648) was lector at the College of Saint Thomas in the early 17th century.[51] During this period several regents of the College of St. Thomas were involved in controversies over the nature of divine grace. In 1608 Juan Gonzalez d'Albelda, author of the Commentariorum & disputationum in primam partem Summma S. Thome de Aquino (1621) was the regent of studies at of the College of St. Thomas.[52] In 1630 Vincenzo Candido, author of Disquisitionibus moralibus (1643), was rector of the College.[53] Giovanni Battista de' Marini (1650–69) was lector at the College of Saint Thomas after 1624[54] Nicolò Rodolfi (1557–1650), author of the Apologia perfectionis vitae spiritualis (1632), became rector of the College of St. Thomas in 1630.[55] In 1635 Juan Gonzales de Leon was regent[56] Giovanni Battista Galvani was baccalaureaus at the College of Saint Thomas in 1646, and was appointed regent in 1662.[57] In 1677 Gregorio Selleri was lector at the studium of S. Maria sopra Minerva.[43] In 1681 Juan Melendez (+1690), author of Теsoros verdaderos de las Indias, en la Historia de la gran Provincia del Peru was regent at the College.[58]
At the general chapter of Rome in 1694 Fr. Antonio Cloche, Master General of the Dominican Order, affirmed that the College of St. Thomas constituted the studium generale of the Roman province of the Order.[59] The college became an international centre of Thomistic specialization, open to members of various provinces of the Dominican Order and to ecclesiastical students, local and foreign.
In 1698, Cardinal Girolamo Casanata, the Librarian of the Holy Roman Church, established the Biblioteca Casanatense at the Convent of Santa Maria sopra Minerva.[60] This library was independent of both the convent and the college, and sponsored its own Chairs in Thomistic theology.[61] At Casanate's death in 1700 the library was inherited by the convent and opened to the general public.
In 1701 Agostino Pipia (1660–1730) was regent of the College .[62] On May 26, 1727, Pope Benedict XIII granted to all Dominicans major houses of study, and thus, to the College of Saint Thomas, the right of conferring academic degrees in theology to students outside the order. Giuseppe Agostino Orsi (1692–1761) was professor of theology at the College of St. Thomas in 1732.[63] Thomas Ripoll, future Master of the Dominican Order, was professor of theology at the College of Saint Thomas in the mid 1750s.[64] Francesco Albertini (1770–1819) completed his theological studies at the College of Saint Thomas in 1795.[65]
In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century the suppression of religious order hampered the mission of the College. During the French occupation of Rome from 1797 to 1814 the College was in declined and even briefly closed its doors from 1810 to 1815.[66] The Order gained control of the Convent once again in 1815 only to be expropriated by the Italian government in 1871 , and in 1873 the Collegium Divi Thomæ de Urbe was forced to leave the Minerva. Throughout this upheaval the pedagogical activities of the College's faculty of theology were carried out at various locations around Rome.[67] The rector of the college during this period, Tommaso Maria Zigliara, with other professors and students took refuge with the Fathers of the Holy Ghost at the French College in Rome. Lectures were continued there until a house near the Minerva was procured for the College.[68]
Giacinto Achilli (1803–1860), author of Dealings with the inquisition: or, Papal Rome, her priests, and her Jesuits ... (1851), was made Master of Sacred Theology at the College of St. Thomas in 1833[69] Alberto Guglielmotti (1812–1892) completed his theology studies in philosophy and theology at the College of Saint Thomas in 1837 and was immediately made professor of physics and mathematics there. In 1849 he was made Master of Theology and Regent of Studies at the College.[70] Thomas Nicholas Burke (1830–1882) was a student of philosophy and theology at the College of St. Thomas in 1848, and was made lector in 1854[71] Joseph Mullooly (1812–1880) became lector in Sacred Theology at the priory of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, Rome in 1849. Later he would be famed for initiating the excavations at the Roman Basilica of San Clemente.[72] Hermann Ernst Plassmann (1817–1864) became a Master of Sacred Theology at the college in 1856.[73] Henri Didon (1840–1900) complete his studies at the College of Saint Thomas in 1862.[74] Filippo Maria Guidi (1815–1879) was professor of philosophy and theology at the College of Saint Thomas in the mid 1800s.[75] Thomas Esser (1850–1926), author of Die Lehre des hl. Thomas von Aquino über die Möglichkeit einer anfanglosen Schöpfung (Munster, 1895), studied theology at the College of Saint Thomas in 1874 with Thomas Maria Zigliara, Raffaele Pierotti, and Giacinto Frati.[76]
In response to the disarray of religious educational institutions Pope Leo XIII, in his encyclical Aeterni Patris of 4 Aug. 1879, called for the renewal of Christian philosophy, and particularly for the study of the doctrines of Aquinas. Given this combined leadership the College began once again to gain status and influence. Leo XIII founded the Faculty of Philosophy in 1882, and the Faculty of Canon Law in 1896.
Contemporary history
At at the dawn of the twentieth century the Dominican conception of intellectual formation at Rome was transformed once again. The general chapters of 1895 (Avila) and 1901 (Ghent) had called for the expansion of the College of St. Thomas so as to meet the growing educational needs of the modern world. In 1904 Pius X granted permission for diocesan seminarians to attend the College of St. Thomas.
The Chapter of 1904 (Viterbo) directed Hyacinthe-Marie Cormier, O.P., the newly elected Master General of the Order of Preachers, to develop the College into a "studium generalissimum for the entire Dominican Order: "Romae erigatur collegium studiorum Ordinis generalissimum, auctoritate magistri generalis immediate subjectum, in quo floreat vita regularis, et ad quod mittantur fratres ex omnibus provinciis." [77]
Cormier responded by stating his intention to establish this new studium as the principal vehicle of dissemination of orthodox Thomistic thought not only among the Dominicans, but also among the secular clergy. Building on the vision of the college established at the Minerva in 1577, this new institution embodied a broader scope and vision directly regulated by the Master of the Order.
The College of Saint Thomas was elevated to the status of Pontificium by Pope Pius X on May 2, 1906, thus making its degrees equivalent to those of the world's other Pontifical universities.[78] By Apostolic Letter of November 8, 1908, signed by the Supreme Pontiff on November 17, the college was transformed into the Collegium Pontificium Internationale Angelicum. At this time the College opened its doors in Via San Vitale 15. Cormier lead the development of the Angelicum until his death in 1916, establishing the principal guidelines for the institution as it exists today.[79]
The rectorship of Tommaso Maria Zigliara (1833–1893), Alberto Lepidi (1838–1922), and Sadoc Szabó had brought the college to a high degree of excellence, and its enrollment climbed from 120 in 1909 to over 1,000 during the 1960s.[80] On June 29, 1923 Pius XI's encyclical Studiorum ducem singled out the College of St, Thomas as the official "sedes Thomae", the world's preeminent institution for the study of the doctrine of Aquinas.[81] In 1924 the future Archbishop and now Servant of God Fulton Sheen (1895–1979) earned a doctorate in sacred theology at the Angelicum.[82]
The year 1926 saw the Angelicum become an institute with its change of name to Pontificium Institutum Internationale Angelicum. In 1932 the Angelicum moved to the appropriately more extensive complex of buildings comprising the ancient Dominican monastery of Saints Dominic and Sixtus on Rome's Esquiline hill. The institution changed its name once again in 1942 becoming the Pontificium Athenaeum Internationale Angelicum.
In 1950 the Angelicum's Institute of Spirituality was founded and incorporated into the Faculty of Theology; a year later the Institute of Social Sciences was founded within the Faculty of Philosophy. This institute would be established as its own faculty in 1974. The Angelicum is the only Pontifical university offering an advanced program in the study of Ecumenism.
On March 7, 1963, Pope John XXIII, with the motu proprio Dominicanus Ordo,[83] raised the Angelicum to the rank of a Pontifical University. Thereafter it would be known as the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas in the City (Latin: Pontificia Studiorum Universitas a Sancto Thoma Aquinate in Urbe).
The Angelicum today
Today the Angelicum is noted especially for its Thomistic studies sections, a tradition that extends back to its earliest foundations. As the official Sedes Thomae in Rome, it provides students with the opportunity to immerse themselves in the Thomistic and Dominican tradition of theology and philosophy. To that end, the Angelicum has always boasted distinguished faculty. Notable figures from just the last hundred years include such leading exponends of Thomism as Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange, Martin Grabmann, Marie-Dominique Chenu, Józef Maria Bocheński, and Cornelio Fabro. Some very recent notable figures associated with the Angelicum include Jordan Aumann, Christoph Cardinal Schönborn, Aidan Nichols, Wojciech Giertych, Theologian of the Papal Household under Pope Benedict XVI, and Bishop-elect Charles Morerod, immediate past Rector Emeritus of the Angelicum and former Secretary of the International Theological Commission, and Sr. Helen Alford, Dean of the Angelicum Faculty of Social Sciences, and Consultant to the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace.
Notable alumni and faculty
- Tommaso Maria Zigliara O.P. (1833–1893) was an Italian priest of the Dominican Order. In 1856 he was ordained and appointed as professor of philosophy at the College of St. Thomas. Later he became a master in sacred theology and was appointed regent of the College. Zigliara was a member of seven Roman congregations, including the Congregation of Studies, and was a co-founder of the Academia Romano di San Tommaso in 1870. Zigliara's fame as a scholar at the forefront of the Thomist revival at the time of his rectorship of the College of St. Thomas was widespread in Rome and elsewhere. "French, Italian, German, English, and American bishops were eager to put some of their most promising students and young professors under his tuition."[68] Zigliara was instrumental in recovering the authentic tradition of Thomism from the influence of the Jesuits' tradition "strongly colored by the interpretation of their own great master Francisco Suárez (d. 1617), who had attempted to reconcile the Aristotelianism of Thomas with the Platonism of Scotus" [85] Under Leo XIII Zigliara contributed to the encyclicals Aeterni Patris and Rerum novarum, and was made the Bishop of Frascati, and then Cardinal, though he died before being consecrated.[86]
- Blessed Hyacinthe-Marie Cormier O.P. (December 8, 1832 – December 17, 1916) was a French priest of the Dominican Order. Cormier was the seventy-sixth Master General of the Order and served from 1904 to 1916. Noted for the quality of his retreats and his powerful preaching, it was he who gave the Angelicum its motto "caritas veritatis",[87] "the charity of truth," as well as its current organizational structure. Pope John Paul II declared Fr. Cormier blessed on November 20, 1994. His feastday is May 21.
- Edouard Hugon O.P. (August 1867 - 7 February 1929) was a French priest of the Dominican Order, a Thomistic philosopher and Papal theologian, a consultant for the Sacra Congretio pro Ecclesia Orientali,[88] famed professor of philosophy at the Angelicum from 1909 to 1929, and well-known author of philosophical and theological manuals within the school of traditional Scholastic Thomism. Among his most famous written contributions to Thomism is the document known as "The 24 Thomistic Theses" issued by the Sacred Congregation of Studies in 1914 as the Church's official statement of the main features of Thomism. This document, commissioned by Pope St. Pius X, constitutes the culmination of the Church's effort "to recover the real teaching of Aquinas, purifying it from distorting traditionsm one-sidedness, and lack of historical perspective."[89] His monumental Cursus philosophiae thomisticae outlines an interpretation of St. Thomas derived from the writings of John of Saint Thomas.[90]
- Thomas Pègues O.P. (1866–1936) was a French priest of the Dominican Order. Pègues served as a professor of theology at the Angelicum from 1909 to 1921. He was one of the prime movers of the anti-modernist movement of his day, as is expressed in his 1907 Revue Thomiste article "L'hérésie du renouvellement": Puisque c'est en se separant de la scolastique et de saint Thomas que la pensée moderne s'est perdue, notre unique devoir et notre seul moyen de la sauver est de lui rendre, si elle le veut, cette meme doctrine."[91] His 21-volume Catéchisme de la Somme théologique, 1919, which was translated into English in 1922,[92] went far towards bringing the moral theory of Neo-Thomism to a wider audience.
- Martin Grabmann (5 January 1875 - 9 January 1949) was a German historian of theology and philosophy, and is commonly recognized as the foremost medievalist of the twentieth century. He studied philosophy at the Angelicum earning a Baccalaureate, License and Doctorate in Philosophy (1901), as well as a Doctorate in Theology (1902).[93] Grabmann was made a professor of theology and philosophy in Eichstätt in 1906. He subsequently moved to the University of Vienna in 1913, and then to the University of Munich in 1918. Grabmann's 2-volume masterpiece The History of Scholastic Method (Die geschichte der scolastischen methode), 1909-1911 was the first scholarly work to draw the outlines of the ongoing development of thought in scholasticism. His Thomas Aquinas: His Personality and Thought (Thomas von Aquin, eine einführung in seine persönlichkeit und gedankenwelt) of 1912 traced in Aquinas a response and development of thought rather than presenting the Angelic Doctor's doctrine as single, coherent whole. Grabmann's thought was foundational in fostering the variety of contemporary interpretations of scholasticism and of Aquinas.
- Mariano Cordovani[94] O.P. (February 25, 1883 - April 4, 1950) was an Italian priest of the Dominican Order. He served the Angelicum from 1912 to 1921 as a professor of philosophy, and again from 1927 to 1934 as Rector Magnificus and professor of dogmatic theology. In 1935 he became the Provincial of the Dominican Roman Province and shortly after his election was made Master of the Sacred Apostolic Palace and first theologian of the Pontifical Household by Pius XI. He contributed especially to the encyclical Divini Redemptoris (1937), and afterward published his Appunti sul comunismo moderno treating the Church's position on communism. Pius XII name him by motu proprio Theologian of the Secretary of State, an ad personam nomination that was without precedent in the history of the Church. He was the protagonist of a social debate in 1943 in the "L'Osservatore Romano" entitled "Il cittadino e la società" (The Citizen and Society) which treated the social role of Catholicism. He was one of the inspirations, along with Giovanni Battista Montini, future Pope Paul VI, of the celebrated Camaldoli Conference of July 1943, which produced an eponymous economic treatise that influenced the development of post-war democratic Italy.[95]
- Réginald Marie Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P. (February 21, 1877 – February 15, 1964, Rome), a French priest of the Dominican Order, is widely regarded to be one of the greatest Thomist of the 20th century. He taught philosophy and theology at the Angelicum from 1909 to 1960. In his Common Sense: The philosophy of being and dogmatic formulae (Le sens commun, la philosophie de l'être et les formules dogmatiques) of 1909 and his God: His Existence and His Nature (Dieu, son existence et sa nature) of 1914, Garrigou-Lagrange stresses Aquinas' profound originality and contemporary relevance. Garrigou-Lagrange directed the doctoral thesis of the future Blessed Pope John Paul II on John of the Cross. Pope John Paul II did not share all of Father Garrigou-Lagrange's views on the subject; and the French scholar and priest thought his doctoral student "writes much, says little." Nevertheless, the dissertation was approved with very good marks (most on the panel readily approved it).
- Dominique Pire O.P. (February 10, 1910 – January 30, 1969) was a Belgian Dominican whose work helping refugees in post-World War II Europe was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize in 1958. Pire studied classics and philosophy at the Collège de Bellevue and at the age of eighteen entered the Dominican priory of La Sarte in Huy. He then studied theology and social science at the Angelicum, where he obtained his doctorate in theology in 1936.
- Marie-Dominique Chenu, O.P. (1895–1990), a French priest of the Dominican Order, was a progressive Roman Catholic theologian and a founder of the reformist journal Concilium. His early theological work treated St. Thomas Aquinas from an historical perspective. His book Le Saulchoir: Une école de la théologie was put on the Index librorum prohibitorum in 1942 by Pope Pius XII because of its progressive ideas about the role of historical studies in theology. Later he was exonerated, being invited to serve as a peritus, or expert, at the Roman Catholic Second Vatican Council (1962–65) where he was influential in the Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, Gaudium et Spes.
- Józef Maria Bocheński O.P. (August 30, 1902 – February 8, 1995) was a Polish priest of the Dominican Order, a logician, philosopher, and one of the most distinguished and prolific contemporary historians of logic. After taking part in the 1920 campaign against Soviet Russia, he took up legal studies in Lwów, then studied economics in Poznań. Having received his doctorate in philosophy at the University of Freibourg (1928–31) and his doctorate in theology at the Angelicum (1931–34), he lectured on logic at the Angelicum until 1940. After WWI he held the chair in the history of twentieth-century philosophy, University of Freibuorg from 1945 to 1972, where he directed the Institute of East European Studies, Freiburg from 1958 to 1975, and served as rector of the university from 1964 to 1966. He edited the journal Studies in Soviet Thought and published Sovietica¸ a book series about the foundations of Marxist philosophy
- Pierre-Paul Philippe O.P. was a French priest of the Dominican Order. He was professor of the history of spirituality and of mystical theology at the Angelicum after 1932. After 1951 he served as an apostolic visitor at various religious institutes and was a consultant for various congregations of the Holy See. Philippe was made Cardinal in 1973 by Pope Paul VI.

- Cornelio Fabro (1911–1995) was an Italian priest of the Stigmatine Order. Fabro's work is seminal in the 20th century renewal of Thomism. His prodigious philosophical production especially addresses the essence of Thomism and the defense of its principle metaphysical and gnoseological theses. He fostered a deeper understanding of the notion of "participation" in Aquinas, and broke new ground with his in philosophical anthropology. Fabro founded the Institute for Higher Studies on Unbelief, Religion and Cultures, and brought the work of Kierkegaard into fruitful comparison with that of Aquinas. Fabro obtained his Doctorate in Theology on October 28, 1937 at the Angelicum with a dissertation of the metaphysical notion of participation according to Saint Thomas Aquinas.
- Blessed Karol Wojtyła (18 May 1920–2 April 2005), who served the Church as Pope John Paul II from 16 October 1978 until his death on 2 April 2005, is certainly among the most illustrious students that the Angelicum has numbered within its ranks. Wojtyła earned a Licentiate and later a Doctorate in Sacred Theology. This Doctorate, the first of two, was based on the dissertation written at the Angelicum under the supervision of Fr. Réginald Marie Garrigou-Lagrange, O.P. entitled Doctrina de fide apud S. Ioannem a Cruce (The Doctrine of Faith According to Saint John of the Cross).[97] John Paul II was declared blessed by Pope Benedict XVI on May 1, 2011.[98][99] His feast day is October 22.

He influenced the renewal of a theological and Christological approach to Christian virtue ethics. Pinckaers did his doctoral studies at the Angelicum and completed his dissertation entitled La vertu d’espérance de Pierre Lombard à saint Thomas (1954) under the direction of Louis-Bertrand Gillon.
- J.-M. Vosté (?1882-1948) was a Belgian Dominican, noted amongst his many publications for his work in Syriac, particularly relating to Theodore of Mopsuestia and "Nestorian" writers.

In 1974 he was charged with organizing the International Congress on the VII Centenary of the Death of St. Thomas Aquinas whose theme was "Saint Thomas Aquinas and the fundamental problems of our time. In 1976 he founded, along with Fr. Benedetto D'Amore, the International Society of Thomas Aquinas. Since 1980 he has been a member of the Directive Council of the Roman Pontifical Academy of St. Thomas Aquinas. In 1987 he was nominated Director of the Saint Thomas Institute of the Angelicum.

Piltz studied at the University of Uppsala and at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum) in Rome, completing his doctorate at Uppsala in 1977. Piltz's early career focused on [Medieval] Latin textual criticism. His 1977 dissertation, Studium Upsalense, was a study and edition of the few extant sources for the curriculum of the mediaeval University of Uppsala, consisting mainly of lecture notes from the late 15th century Uppsala student Olaus Johannis Gutho, later a Bridgettine monk at Vadstena. He has taught at Lund University since 1981 and is Professor of Latin there since 2000. He has also published the critical edition of Homo conditus by Magister Mathias Ouidi (c 1300 – c. 1350), the confessor of Saint Bridget of Sweden; and Magistri Mathiae canonici Lincopensis opus sub nomine. Later his interests shifted towards the history of ideas.[102]

The Journal Angelicum & Oikonomia
The Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas is home to the journal Angelicum. Founded in 1924 to promote the authentic tradition of Dominican Thomism, Angelicum fosters engagement with contemporary intellectual culture from a historical and systematic perspective. Angelicum publishes articles on topics in theology, philosophy, canon law, and social science in the principal European languages.[109]
Oikonomia is the journal of the Faculty of Social Sciences (FASS) of the Pontifical University of St Thomas in Rome (PUST). It is a collaborative project of the lecturers and students of the faculty, and of scholars who work with the FASS. The issues that are covered are those of the social sciences, as we understand them in our tradition, covering five areas: philosophy, law, history, psico-sociological, economics.
The subjects treated as the journal's editorial profile has developed have ranged from theoretical issues to reports on conferences, to reviews of important new books. Particular attention is given in every number to selecting a text from the recent or distant past, but which always has particular significance for the main theme of the number; this text, the "classic page", is always directly connected with the editorial.
The editorial committee ensures only that a correct methodology has been employed by the author of contributions. It does not vet the content of the articles, for which the sole responsibility lies with the authors.http://www.oikonomia.it/

The official grant was made only in June, 1222 (Bullarium O.P., I, 15). But the terms of the bull show that there had been a concession earlier. Before that concession the Pope said that the friars had no hospitium in Rome. At that time St. Sixtus was no longer theirs; Conrad of Metz could not have alluded to St. Sixtus, therefore, when he said in 1221: "the Pope has conferred on them a house in Rome" (Laurent no. 136). It is possible that the Pope was waiting for the completion of the building that he was having done at Santa Sabina, before giving the title to the property, on June 5, 1222, to the new Master of the Order, elected not many days before."
