Book Description
The study of medieval philosophy has often been lost between the foundational importance of ancient thought and the grandeur of the renaissance. In recent years, though, medieval philosophy has reawakened significant interest, playing an important role in our understanding of the history of ideas. Medieval Philosophy: Essential Readings with Commentary examines the various philosophies to come out of the largest and most varied period of western intellectual heritage. Part of the Blackwell Readings in Philosophy Series, this collection focuses on the foremost philosophers of the period, and uses relevant key texts, including several new translations, and thorough commentary to provide a comprehensive introductory text.
Review
"A well-chosen and exciting selection of readings, demonstrating not only the richness of medieval philosophy but also its relevance for philosophical debate today." -- Michael Beaney, University of York
"This work sets a new standard for teaching anthologies in medieval philosophy. Because it is organized along medieval rather than modern lines, it offers readers a glimpse of the medieval vision of higher education, beginning with the rudiments of learned discourse in dialectic or logic and then moving on to natural philosophy and metaphysics, the study of which culminates in ethics." -- Jack Zupko, Emory University
"An essential collection of central readings covering a millennium of philosophy, from Augustine to John Buridan. An important sourcebook." -- Paul Vincent Spade, Indiana University
