Book Description
Later Medieval Philosophy (1150-1350) provides an introduction to philosophy in the Latin West between 1150 and 1350. Part I describes the medieval thinker's intellectual and historical context, by examining the structure of courses in the medieval universities, the methods of teaching, the forms of written work, and the translation and availability of ancient Greek, Arab, and Jewish philosophical texts. Part II examines the nature of intellectual knowledge by explaining the arguments given by Aristotle, his antique commentators, and the Arab philosophers, Avicenna and Averroes.
Review
`Coupled with the earlier volume this book gives us the most up-to-date general work on medieval philosophy in the Latin West currently available; I have no doubt that students will profit from it. It is clearly written and has a good bibliography of the easily accessible sources as well as of important secondary works. Its discussions of philosophical issues are both erudite and astute.' -- Canadian Philosophical Reviews
`Marenbon's book is an intelligent and useful contribution to our understanding of a difficult yet stimulating period of philosophical thought.' -- Oliver Leaman, Philosophy
`The book is one which will grow with the reader, and should be equally valuable for university students, intelligent sixth-formers and their teachers establishing a course.' -- Times Higher Education Supplement
`Marenbon's clearly written and intelligent philosophical essay deserves a place on the shelves of student libraries.' -- The Thomist
