Therese Cory

Therese Cory, a specialist in Aquinas, studies the Arabic-to-Latin transmission of Aristotle’s thought — in particular its synthesis with Catholicism expressed by Aquinas — and the broad philosophical tradition that connects Muslim, Jewish and Christian thinkers in the Middle Ages. She serves on the executive committee for the Aquinas and the Arabs Project, and, in 2017, she won a National Humanities Center fellowship to support her research. Cory was also awarded an Alexander von Humboldt fellowship in 2014.
