Description
Book SynopsisThis multi-author work focuses primarily on 13th and 14th century Latin treatments of the most important metaphysical issues of the day. Though standard ontological topics are covered in detail—e.g., existence, universals, form, and accidents—there is also an emphasis on metaphysics broadly conceived to include epistemology, language, and logic.
Trade Review"This collection will appeal to all students of medieval, late medieval, and early modern philosophy... Recommended." -Choice "Later Medieval Metaphysics contains a number of excellent studies by some of the leading scholars in the field. These studies will engage and stimulate both specialists and advanced students not only of medieval metaphysics but also of medieval philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and logic." -- -Andrew Arlig Brooklyn College "[This volume] represents the highest standards and the most recent scholarship on this topic, one which was vital to all medieval thought, in particular, theological doctrinal controversies, and has close connections with contemporary metaphysical issues." -- -Stephen Read University of St. Andrews
