  • Abstract of Monia Mancinelli's Work (RAMUS
    Abstract of Monia Mancinelli’s work (RAMUS PhD - curriculum FITMU, XXIX cicle – XV o. s.) Title: “The Principle of Individuation in Landulph Caracciolus’s commentary on the Sentences. Text and study”. This research is aimed at reconstructing and studying the sections of Landulph Caracciolus’s commentary on the Sentences dedicated to the principle of individuation. Landulph Caracciolus is a Franciscan friar coming from Naples who lived in the XIVth century and who lectured the Sentences at Paris in the academic year 1318-1319. Recently, Christopher D. Schabel has underlined that, despite its widespread popularity and the important context of its composition, however, Landulph’s commentary on the Sentences has largely been neglected. From 1999 Christopher D. Schabel and Russell L. Friedman have been promoting a larger attention to Landulph’s commentary, showing that the Franciscan friar can be an interesting mean to trace the story of the reception of Duns Scotus and Peter Auriol’s doctrines at the University of Paris during the first twenty years of the XIVth century. The question of the principle of the individuation is about the research of the existence and the identification of the element responsible for both ontological determination and knowledge of the single entity. The first chapter of this work shows that the question explodes during the XIIIth century thanks to the Aristotelian corpus and to Avicenna’s and Averroes’s works, and many thinkers try to offer a personal solution to the problem, offering six main competing theories: 1) real natures are individual as such (William of Ware); 2) double negation (Henry of Ghent); 3) actual existence (maybe Roger Bacon, Peter of Falco, Peter of Alverny or Robert Kilwardby); 4) the collection of personal accidents/properties (ascribed to Boethius), and particularly quantity (Godfrey of Fontaines and Thomas Sutton); 5) matter (Albert the Great, Thomas of Aquin and Giles of Rome); 6) respectus ad agens (unknown).

The early fourteenth century has become a particularly active area of research in medieval philosophy and theology in the last two decades. Interest in Oxford thought led the way. Building upon the earlier publication of the works of Richard Campsale, William of Ockham, and the Lectura Secunda of Adam Wodeham, we now have editions of the works of Walter Chatton and Henry of Harclay, and questions from Thomas Wylton, Walter Burley, Richard Fitzralph, and Thomas Bradwardine. As regards Paris, the ongoing critical edition of the opera omnia of John Duns Scotus and a portion of Peter Auriol’s commentary on the Sentences is now been followed by projects for critical editions of the rest of Auriol’s commentary and the Sentences commentaries of Durand of St. Pourçain, Francis of Marchia, and Gerard Odonis. Philosophical Debates brings together many of those who are leading the research field on Parisian thought in the early fourteenth century. The essays themselves are the result of a joint project between Stephen Brown at Boston College and Thomas Dewender at Bonn, who hosted two conferences on this theme at their respective institutions.

  • The Cambridge Companion to Ockham
    the cambridge companion to ockham Each volume of this series of companions to major philosophers contains specially commissioned essays by an international team of scholars, together with a substantial bibliography, and will serve as a reference work for students and nonspecialists. One aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation such readers often feel when faced with the work of a difficult and challenging thinker. The Franciscan William of Ockham (c. 1288–1347) was an English medieval philosopher, theologian, and political theorist. Along with Thomas Aquinas and John Duns Scotus, he is regarded as one of the three main figures in medieval philosophy after around 1150. Ockham is important not only in the history of philosophy and theo- logy but also in the development of early modern science and of modern notions of property rights and church-state relations. This volume offers a full discussion of all significant aspects of Ockham’s thought: logic, philosophy of language, metaphysics and natural philosophy, epistemology, ethics, action theory, political thought, and theology. It is the first study of Ockham in any lan- guage to make full use of the new critical editions of his works and to consider recent discoveries concerning his life, education, and in- fluences. New readers will find this the most convenient and accessible guide to Ockham currently available. Advanced students and spe- cialists will find a conspectus of recent developments in the inter- pretation of Ockham. Paul Vincent Spade is Professor of Philosophy at Indiana University.

  • THE PECIA SYSTEM and ITS USE Alison Joan Ray
    THE PECIA SYSTEM AND ITS USE IN THE CULTURAL MILIEU OF PARIS, C1250-1330 Alison Joan Ray UCL Submitted for the degree of PhD in History 2015 1 I, Alison Joan Ray, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed, ___________________ 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is an examination of the pecia system in operation at the University of Paris from c1250 to 1330, and its use in the cultural milieu of the city during this period. An appendix (1) lists the manuscripts with user notes on which the thesis is primarily based. As the university community rose as a leading force in theology and philosophy, so too did the book trade that supported this network. The pecia system of book production mass-produced texts efficiently and at a low cost to its users, mainly university masters, students, preachers, and visitors to the Paris cultural community. Users interacted with pecia manuscripts by leaving a wide range of marginalia in works. Marginalia are classified according to a devised user typology scheme and include ownership marks, passage summaries, and comments on the main text. We have two further surviving sources for the Paris system: bookseller lists of pecia-produced works from 1275 and 1304. Chapters 1 to 10 examine separate genres of texts available on the pecia lists, theological and philosophical works as well as preaching aids. That Paris pecia manuscripts were used in action as preaching aids is one of the conclusions the user notes help to establish.

  • Philip the Chancellor, Bonaventure of Bagnoregio, and Thomas
    PHILIP THE CHANCELLOR, BONAVENTURE OF BAGNOREGIO, AND THOMAS AQUINAS ON THE ETERNITY OF THE WORLD A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Joseph William Yarbrough, III May 2011 © 2011 Joseph William Yarbrough, III PHILIP THE CHANCELLOR, BONAVENTURE OF BAGNOREGIO, AND THOMAS AQUINAS ON THE ETERNITY OF THE WORLD Joseph William Yarbrough, III, Ph.D. Cornell University 2011 Some philosophers have thought that there are sound arguments proving that past time is necessarily finite in duration. In light of these arguments, I examine the positions taken on past time by Philip the Chancellor, Bonaventure, and Thomas Aquinas. Philip argues that nothing created can be eternal and that everything which is not eternal is finite in past duration; I argue that many of the insights of Philip’s position can be preserved even if the world is infinite in past duration. Bonaventure also believes that a created world must be finite in past duration, but, as I show, he accepts the conceptual possibility of infinite past time in an uncreated world. Despite being more liberal about infinite past time than is often believed, Bonaventure maintains the principle that it is impossible for an infinite number of things to exist simultaneously. I discuss how this principle bears on the eternity of the world discussion in both Bonaventure’s writing and Aquinas’. Aquinas holds this principle for much of his career, albeit with some hesitation, but at the end of his life, he rejects it.
