Description

Book Synopsis
This book presents in translation writings by six medieval philosophers which bear on the subject of conscience. Conscience has been unduly neglected in modern philosophy, where a prevailing belief in the autonomy of ethics leaves it no natural place. It was, however, a standard subject for a treatise in medieval philosophy.

Table of Contents
Preface; Glossary; 1. Peter Lombard and Jerome; 2. Philip the Chancellor; 3. Bonaventure; 4. Aquinas; 5. Balance-sheet; Translations; Appendices; Bibliography; Analytical index of subjects; Index of proper names; Index of biblical references.
