Saint Thomas Aquinas, born in 1225 at Roccasecca in the Kingdom of Sicily, was a Dominican friar whose monumental theological and philosophical works, like the *Summa Theologiae*, earned him the title “Doctor Angelicus.” From a noble family, he defied his parents’ plans for a secular career, joining the Dominicans in 1244 despite being briefly imprisoned by his brothers. Educated in Naples, Paris, and Cologne under Albertus Magnus, he taught at the University of Paris, synthesizing Aristotelian philosophy with Christian doctrine. His prolific career—spanning commentaries, hymns, and the *Summa*—halted after a mystical vision in 1273, leaving his masterwork unfinished. He died on March 7, 1274, at Fossanova Abbey en route to the Council of Lyon, aged about 49. | Saint Thomas Aquinas, born in 1225 at Roccasecca in the Kingdom of Sicily, was a Dominican friar whose monumental theological and philosophical works, like the *Summa Theologiae*, earned him the title “Doctor Angelicus.” From a noble family, he defied his parents’ plans for a secular career, joining the Dominicans in 1244 despite being briefly imprisoned by his brothers.
