Question 80 — The Appetitive Powers in General

Next we consider the appetitive powers, concerning which there are four heads of consideration: first, the appetitive powers in general; second, sensuality; third, the will; fourth, the free-will.

Under the first there are two points of inquiry:

(1) Whether the appetite should be considered a special power of the soul?

  • (2) Whether the appetite should be divided into intellectual and sensitive as distinct powers?
