Her address, entitled "Women's Courage: A Thomistic Perspective on Andromache, Joan of Arc and Rosie the Riveter" is a study of the priority of “womanly” over “manly” courage in the work of Thomas Aquinas. His work reflects the radical re-assessment of “courage” necessitated by the experience of martyrdom in the early Christian church.
