A presente dissertação procura mostrar afinidades entre o pensamento de Tomás de Aquino em torno da ideia de belo e a presença desta concepção na fundação da escola portuguesa de arquitectura paisagista. A primeira parte incide sobre a temática belo, a par do modo como um autor da estirpe intelectual de Tomás de Aquino ousou abordá-la, ainda jovem frade dominicano, pela mão do seu mestre e protector Alberto Magno, ao descobrir o pensamento expresso por um enigmático seu congénere neoplatónico sobre o mesmo tema oito séculos antes, cujo nome a História registou como Pseudo Dionísio Areopagita. A segunda ocupa-se da exposição da presença do núcleo fundamental do pensamento de Aquino sobre a referida temática na arquitectura paisagista portuguesa, destacando-se o papel crucial que coube a Francisco Caldeira Cabral, enquanto seu fundador e pioneiro deste novo ramo das belas-artes em Portugal, bem como a alguns dos seus mais dilectos seguidores, casos de Gonçalo Ribeiro Telles e de Fernando Santos Pessoa. A parte final incide numa apreciação ao declínio da arquitectura paisagista no mundo, bem como no nosso país, ao qual se associa o estado de degradação ecológica de que o Planeta está sendo vítima.
The presente thesis attempts to show affinities between Thomas Aquina’s thinking about the view of the beautiful and the presence of this concepction in the portuguese school of landscape architecture. The first part of it is focused on the way in which an author of his intelectual level dared to approach the topic, despite being an young franciscan monk. By the guidance of his mentor and proptector Albert Magnum, he discovered the thought expressed by an his enigmatic neoplatonic congenerate eitgh centuries before, whose name History registered as So-called Areopagite Dionysus. The second part deals with the fundamental presence of Aquinas’thought in the portuguese landscape architecture, detaching the crucial role of Francisco Caldeira Cabral, the founder and pioneer of this new fine arts branch in Portugal, as well as some of his most devoted followers, such as Gonçalo Ribeiro Telles and Fernando Santos Pessoa. The final part approaches the landscape architecture decline around the world, associated to the ecological degradation that has the Planet as its victim.
