Medieval Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction
For many of us, the term 'medieval philosophy' conjures up the figure of Thomas Aquinas, and is closely intertwined with religion. In this Very Short Introduction John Marenbon shows how medieval philosophy had a far broader reach than the thirteenth and fourteenth-century universities of Christian Europe, and is instead one of the most exciting and diversified periods in the history of thought. Introducing the coexisting strands of Christian, Muslim, and Jewish philosophy, Marenbon shows how these traditions all go back to the Platonic schools of late antiquity and explains the complex ways in which they are interlinked. Providing an overview of some of the main thinkers, such as Boethius, ...

La filosofia medieval
Aquesta exposició de filosofia medieval, plural, descentrada i multicultural, sens dubte resultarà sorprenent al lector, tant si és especialista en filosofia medieval com si no. Per a qui tinga interès en l’estudi de les cultures llatina, àrab i jueva, és fonamental advertir que aquest relat historiogràfic no s’organitza a partir del punt de vista del cristianisme occidental, que no reconeix cap centre al món medieval, i que l’atribució d’espais als autors i els temes que tracta no fan més que evidenciar que jueus, àrabs i llatins van tenir temps, llengües i espais culturals diferents; una diversitat que fa impossible la unitat que sembla que requereix la categoria d’Edat Mitjana. Contràriament al que els humanistes del Renaixement presentaven com una «barbàrie medieval», la filosofia de l’Edat Mitjana era diferent de la teologia escolàstica, i va aportar una contribució significativa, distinta de la filosofia antiga o tardoantiga, a la història general de la filosofia.
Representation and Objects of Thought in Medieval Philosophy
The notions of mental representation and intentionality are central to contemporary philosophy of mind and it is usually assumed that these notions, if not originated, at least were made essential to the philosophy of mind by Descartes in the seventeenth century. The authors in this book challenge this assumption and show that the history of these ideas can be traced back to the medieval period. In bringing out the contrasts and similarities between early modern and medieval discussions of mental representation the authors conclude that there is no clear dividing line between western late medieval and early modern philosophy; that they in fact represent one continuous tradition in the philosophy of mind.
Medieval Thought
The Middle Ages span a period of well over a millennium: from the emperor Constantine's Christian conversion in 312 to the early sixteenth century. During this time there was remarkable continuity of thought, but there were also many changes made in different philosophies: various breaks, revivals and rediscoveries. David Luscombe's history of Medieval Thought steers a clear path through this long period, beginning with three great influences on medieval philosophy: Augustine, Boethius, and Pseudo-Denis, and focusing on Alcuin, then Anselm, Abelard, Aquinas, Ockham, Duns Scotus, and Eckhart amongst others from the twelfth to the fifteenth century. Medieval philosophy is widely regarded as having a theological and religious orientation, but more recently attention has been given to the early study of logic, language, and the philosophy of science. This history therefore gives a fascinating insight into medieval views on aspects such as astronomy, materialism, perception, and the nature of the soul, as well as of God.
Spheres of Philosophical Inquiry and the Historiography of Medieval Philosophy
Recent writers in the historiography of philosophy have placed into question the paradigms that structure our historical writing. This volume continues this discussion with particular reference to medieval philosophy. Inglis shows that the modern historiography of medieval philosophy had its origins in certain nineteenth-century German reactions to Kantian idealism. He uncovers the philosophical, political, and theological origins of how we have come to interpret medieval philosophy according to the standard spheres of philosophy. By keeping such historiography in mind and paying attention to the context in which the medieval actually wrote, Inglis raises serious questions concerning the accuracy of the dominant model and proposes an historically sensitive alternative. The genealogy will interest medievalists and intellectual historians, the alternative model will interest historians of medieval philosophy, and theology.
