Aristotelian Logic, Platonism, and the Context of Early Medieval Philosophy in the West Hardback
by John Marenbon
Part of the Variorum Collected Studies series
Hardback
Description
Philosophy in the medieval Latin West before 1200 is often thought to have been dominated by Platonism.
The articles in this volume question this view, by cataloguing, describing and investigating the tradition of Aristotelian logic in the period, examining its influence on authors usually placed within the Platonic tradition (Eriugena, Anselm, Gilbert of Poitiers), and also looking at some of the characteristics of early medieval Platonism.
Abelard, the most brilliant logician of the age, is the main subject of three articles, and the book concludes with two more general discussions about how and why medieval philosophy should be studied.
