About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Summa Theologica - 03 Pars Prima, The Angels and the Six Days, by Saint Thomas Aquinas. Read by Librivox Volunteers. The Summa Theologica (or the Summa Theologiae or simply the Summa, written 1265–1274) is the most famous work of Thomas Aquinas (c. 1225–1274) although it was never finished. It was intended as a manual for beginners as a compilation of all of the main theological teachings of that time. It summarizes the reasonings for almost all points of Christian theology in the West, which, before the Protestant Reformation, subsisted solely in the Roman Catholic Church. The Summa's topics follow a cycle: the existence of God, God's creation, Man, Man's purpose, Christ, the Sacraments, and back to God.(Summary adapted from the Wikipedia) This is part three of six parts of the Pars Prima, consisting of questions regarding the Angels, and the Work of the Six Days.
