The attitude to Thomas’ moral philosophy notably determined opinions of two well-known historians of philosophy: Étienne Gilson and Fernand van Steenberghen. The positions of the two scholars about the issue where Thomas has entered more complete his moral philosophy are divergent. Van Steenberghen claimed that ethics of Thomas we can find in his ‘Commentarry to Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle’ but Gilson claimed that it is in Summa Theologiae and Summa contra gentiles. In Gilson’s opinion these two composition are sources of whole and mature ethical thought of Thomas Aquinas. It seems really interesting that so far no one has hold a position in these two different opinions. The discussion between Gilson and van Steenberghen has not been solv and both scholars had got their own views. It seems that a lack of any continuation of this ‘dispute’ is a gap in a discourse about the value of commentaries of St. Thomas to Aristotle’s compositions. That is why it is important to show behind-the-scenes of this dispute and indicate possible reasons which caused that opinions of two eminent historians of philosophy had got so different views about this issue.
