Philosophy in the medieval Latin West before 1200 is often thought to have been dominated by Platonism. The articles in this volume question this view, by cataloguing, describing and investigating the tradition of Aristotelian logic during this period, examining its influence on authors usually placed within the Aristotelian tradition (Eriugena, Anselm, Gilbert of Poitiers), and also looking at some of the characteristics of early medieval Platonism. Abelard, the most brilliant logician of the age, is the main subject of three articles, and the book concludes with two more general discussions about how and why medieval philosophy should be studied.
Industry Reviews
John Marenbon has moved from a narrow analytic conception of philosophical rationality to a truly historical understanding of human reason in its different manifestations. For this reason, but not only for this reason, Aristotelian Logic, Platonism, and the Context of Early Medieval Philosophy in the West is an excellent book. We look forward to the future work of its prolific author.' Tijdschrift voor Filosofie
