Thomas of Sutton

Thomas of Sutton[1] (died after 1315) was an English Dominican theologian, an early Thomist[2]. He wrote a large number of works, in some of which he opposed Duns Scotus[3].

He was ordained as deacon in 1274 by Walter Giffard, and joined the Dominicans in the 1270s; he may have been a Fellow of Merton College, Oxford before that. He became doctor of theology in 1282.[4].
