The most famous work of St Thomas Aquinas, which brings together 29 questions on the truth, and 253 articles of answers.
These disputed issues correspond to the first disputes led by Thomas Aquinas as master of theology at the University of Paris during the academic year 1256–1257, when Thomas Aquinas was a young professor.
In the first question, Thomas Aquinas defined truth as "the adequacy of the thing and the intellect.".
