Fr. Walter Farrell, O. P.

I mentioned Father Farrell in the previous post. I am delighted to report that many works are available online. For those daunted by an encounter with the Summa alone, you might wish to peruse the magnificent Companion to the Summa available online here.

Farrell wrote a good deal more and he wrote quite well.


The first lines of a lengthy, prophetic essay follow. For the entire essay see this.


No Place for Rain

By Fr. Walter Farrell, O.P.

The western world has nearly come to the conclusion that hell is probably unpleasant. At least the previews of the last fifteen years have shaken us out of a smug dismissal of the possibilities of hell.

Enjoy these wonderful gifts from our Domincan brethren.
