Having recently noted the passing of James Ross--one of the early luminaries of what came to be known as "Analytic Thomism"--I got to thinking about the growth of this movement (which was greatly accelerated by the formation of the Society of Christian Philosophers). In my lifetime, Ive noticed a real swelling of interest in the titular subject of this post. I got it in high school from reading Geisler, and then later from Haldane and the Analytic Thomist movement (by the way, see Haldanes new book here which is a follow up to this one). A lot of my Peeps at the at the Society for Catholicism and Analytic Philosophy would consider themselves analytic Thomists. I would say that my colleague Alex Pruss is one, though hed be uncomfortable with the "Thomist" part, though I read that pretty broadly. SLUs Jonathan Jacobs would count in my book too, though Id want to add the same caveat. Setting aside any debate about the extension of "Thomist," Pruss and Jacobs seem clearly to be in the Neo-Aristotelian camp in several ways. Im wondering what other writers you think fit this bill or how many people want to say Amen! to it or...
