AETERNI PATRIS - Encyclical Letter of Pope Leo XIII

Aeterni Patris (English: Of the Eternal Father) was an encyclical issued by Pope Leo XIII in August 1879, (not to be confused with the apostolic letter of the same name written by Pope Pius IX in 1868 calling the First Vatican Council). It was subtitled "On the Restoration of Christian Philosophy in Catholic Schools in the Spirit (ad mentem) of the Angelic Doctor, St. Thomas Aquinas". The aim of the encyclical was to advance the revival of Scholastic philosophy. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeterni...) CONTENT(http://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xii...) I.
