Antonin Gilbert Sertillanges was a French Catholic philosopher and spiritual writer whose scholarly work focused on the moral theory of Thomas Aquinas. In the English-speaking world, he is best known for two works aimed at a non-specialist audience: 'The Intellectual Life' offers a practical guide for structuring one's life to achieve scholarly progress, while 'What Jesus Saw from the Cross' is a spiritual reflection drawn from his time in Jerusalem. His writings also delve into political theory, French identity, and the structure of the traditional French family, offering profound insights into ethics and spirituality.
