Three Authorities -- The Beginnings of Medieval Philosophy -- The Revival of the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries -- The Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries: New Sources–New Problems -- The Thirteenth Century: Until 1277 -- The Thirteenth Century: After 1277 -- The Fourteenth Century -- The Fifteenth Century
Resumen: 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, the Anselm, Abelard, Aquinas, Ockham, Duns Scotus, and Eckhart amongst others from the twelfth to 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.

CHOICE Review

Many histories of medieval philosophy concentrate almost exclusively on issues in philosophical theology. It is one of the strengths of this study that Luscombe explores the variety and subtlety of medieval thought in logic, the philosophy of language, psychology, natural philosophy, and ethics, as well as discussing God and the soul. In addition to examining major thinkers like Anselm, Abelard, Thomas Aquinas, Duns Scotus, William of Ockham, and Nicholas of Cusa, Luscombe also discusses the contributions of seminal but lesser figures like Boethius of Dacia, John of Jandun, and Ramon Lull among others. In covering a period of 1,000 years and the thought of first-rate philosophical minds, one has to make some difficult choices. Luscombe has chosen to give more attention to telling the story of those who ventured into new territory than to examining the whole of any particular thinker's system. Luscombe is research professor (medieval history, Univ. of Sheffield) and has written extensively on the history of medieval thought. For upper-division undergraduates and above. P. L. Urban Jr.; emeritus, Swarthmore College
