QUESTION 11

OF ENJOYMENT [*Or, Fruition], WHICH IS AN ACT OF THE WILL

(In Four Articles)

We must now consider enjoyment: concerning which there are four

points of inquiry:

(1) Whether to enjoy is an act of the appetitive power?

(2) Whether it belongs to the rational creature alone, or also to

irrational animals?

(3) Whether enjoyment is only of the last end?

(4) Whether it is only of the end possessed?
