IN MEMORIAM FR DAVID BURRELL CSC

On October 1, 2023 Father David Burrell CSC passed away at the age of 90. His approach to the thought of Thomas Aquinas has been very important for the Thomas Instituut. Books like his Aquinas: God and Action were fundamental in shaping what is sometimes called the ’Utrecht school’ of reading Aquinas. David visited Utrecht often and some of us, like Henk Schoot and Harm Goris, studied with him at Notre Dame. We shall remember him with love and gratitude.
