Franco Trabattoni Essays on Plato’s epistemology
An Innovating approach to Plato's philosophy. Through a careful survey of several significant Platonic texts, mainly focussing on the nature of knowledge, Essays on Plato's Epistemology offers the reader a fresh and promising approach to Plato's philosophy as a whole. From the very earliest reception of Plato's philosophy, there has been a conflict between a dogmatic and a sceptical interpretation of his work and thought. Moreover, the two sides are often associated, respectively, with a metaphysical...

Baruch Spinoza Politiek traktaat
Het Politiek traktaat is Spinoza’s antwoord op de problemen van zijn tijd. Na het rampjaar 1672 bevond Nederland zich in grote moeilijkheden. In de loop van de zeventiende eeuw was ons land telkens veranderd van staatsvorm: van een republiek onder leiding van raadspensionarissen tot een quasimonarchie met stadhouders die via staatsgrepen aan de macht waren gekomen en vice versa. In het Politiek traktaat pleit Spinoza voor een duurzame en stabiele staatsvorm berustend op een mengvorm van monarchie,...

Martin Mittelmeier Adorno in Napels
hoe natuur in filosofie kan veranderen
‘Adorno in Napels’ laat zien hoe een reis naar Napels een doorbraak betekende in het denken van de beroemde filosoof Theodor W. Adorno. In het door de vele uitbraken van de Vesuvius poreus geworden landschap, in de chaotische structuur van de stad zelf, vond hij de inspiratie voor zijn latere filosofie: een denken dat zich radicaal verzet tegen alle toe-eigening. Martin Mittelmeier laat in dit vernieuwende boek zien hoe Adorno’s hermetische filosofie uiteindelijk wortelt in een concrete ervaring....

Magdalena Bieniak The soul-body problem at Paris, ca. 1200-1250
Hugh of St-Cher and his contemporaries
The soul-body problem was among the most controversial issues discussed in 13th century Europe, and it continues to capture much attention today as the quest to understand human identity becomes more and more urgent. What made the discussion about this problem particularly interesting in the scholastic period was the tension between the traditional dualist doctrines and a growing need to affirm the unity of the human being. This debate is frequently interpreted as a conflict between the 'new' philosophy,...

Averroes' natural philosophy and its reception in the Latin west
The impact of Averroes' natural philosophy on the history of philosophy and science. Ibn Rushd (1126-1198) or Averroes, is widely known as the unrivalled commentator on virtually all works by Aristotle.

Franciscus de Marchia Reportatio IIA
(Quaestiones in secundum librum Sententiarum) qq. 13-27
The texts edited in this volume deal with angelology and anthropology, and particularly with the nature and the functions of immaterial substances like angels and the human rational soul. Marchia discusses such controversial issues as universal hylomorphism, i.e., whether angels and the rational soul are composed of both matter and form (q. 13), the immortality of the soul (qq. 18-19), and the nature and the object of the intellect and will (qq. 20, 21), as well as the functionality of the angelic...

S.W. de Boer The science of the soul
the commentary tradition on Aristotle's De anima, c. 1260 - c. 1360
The transformation of the science of the soul between 1260 and 1360. Aristotle's highly influential work on the soul, entitled De anima, formed part of the core curriculum of medieval universities and was discussed intensively. It covers a range of topics in philosophical psychology, such as the relationship between mind and body and the nature of abstract thought. However, there is a key difference in scope between the socalled 'science of the soul', based on Aristotle, and modern philosophical...
