Book Synopsis The Metalogicon by : John of Salisbury
Download or read book The Metalogicon written by John of Salisbury and published by Paul Dry Books. This book was released on 2009 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in 1159 and addressed to Thomas Becket, John of Salisbury's The Metalogicon presents -- and defends -- a thorough study of the liberal arts of grammar, logic, and rhetoric. The very name "Metalogicon", a coinage by the author, brings together the Greek meta (on behalf of) and logicon (logic or logical studies). Thus, in naming his text, he also explained it. With this lucid treatise on education, John of Salisbury urges a thorough grounding in the arts of words (oral and written) and reasoning, as these topics are addressed in grammar and logic. Written more than nine hundred years ago, The Metalogicon still possesses an invigorating originality that invites readers to refresh themselves at the sources of Western learning.

Book Synopsis Medieval Aristotelianism and its Limits by : Cary J. Nederman
Download or read book Medieval Aristotelianism and its Limits written by Cary J. Nederman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the development of moral and political philosophy in the medieval West. Professor Nederman is concerned to trace the continuing influence of classical ideas, but emphasises that the very diversity and diffuseness of medieval thought shows that there is no single scheme that can account for the way these ideas were received, disseminated and reformulated by medieval ethical and political theorists.
Book Synopsis The Origins of the University by : Stephen C. Ferruolo
Download or read book The Origins of the University written by Stephen C. Ferruolo and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1985-06 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University of Paris is generally regarded as the first true university, the model for others not only in France but throughout Europe, including Oxford and Cambridge. This book challenges two prevailing myths about the university's origins: first, that the university naturally developed to meet the utilitarian and professional needs of European society in the late Middle Ages, and second, that it was the product of the struggle by scholars to gain freedom and autonomy from external authorities, most notably church officials. In the twelfth century, Paris was the educational center of Europe, with a large number of schools and masters attracting and competing for students. Over the decades, the schools of Paris had many critics--monastic reformers, humanists, satirists, and moralists--and the focus of this book is the role such critics played in developing the schools into a university. Ferruolo argues that it was the educational values and ideas promoted by the critics--ideas of the unity of knowledge, the need to share learning freely and willingly, and the higher purposes and social importance of education--that first inspired the scholars of Paris to join together to form a single guild. Their programs for educational reforms can be seen in the first set of statues promulgated for the nascent University of Paris in 1215.

Book Synopsis Angelo Poliziano's Lamia by : Angelo Poliziano
Download or read book Angelo Poliziano's Lamia written by Angelo Poliziano and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-06-14 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1492, Angelo Poliziano published his Lamia, a praelectio, or opening oration to a course he would teach that academic year on Aristotle’s Prior Analytics at the Florentine university. Having heard murmurings that he was not philosopher enough to teach the Aristotelian text, Poliziano strikes back, offering in effect a fable-tinted history of philosophy. More than a repudiation of local gossip, the text represents a rethinking of the mission of philosophy. This volume offers the first English translation, an edition of the Latin text, and four studies that set this rich example of humanist Latin writing in context. Brill's Texts and Sources in Intellectual History, vol. 7.

Book Synopsis Rhetoric and Philosophy in Renaissance Humanism by : Jerrold E. Seigel
Download or read book Rhetoric and Philosophy in Renaissance Humanism written by Jerrold E. Seigel and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combination of rhetoric and philosophy appeared in the ancient world through Cicero, and revived as an ideal in the Renaissance. By a careful and precise analysis of the views of four major humanists-Petrarch, Salutati, Bruni, and Valla—Professor Seigel seeks to establish that they were first of all professional rhetoricians, completely committed to the relation between philosophy and rhetoric. He then explores the broader problem of the "external history" of humanism, and reopens basic questions about Renaissance culture. He departs from the views held by such scholars as Hans Baron and Lauro Martines and expands the conclusions suggested by Paul Oskar Kristeller. The result is a stimulating, controversial study that rejects some of the claims made for the humanists and indicates achievements and limitations. Originally published in 1968. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
