How you think matters and it will always change the way you act. An Introduction to Scholastic Philosophy provides a framework which is grounded in common sense reality. Living in reality is better than living in a self-imposed prison of fantasy, right? Of course! If you want to discover the reliable groundwork for a better way of living and thinking as grounded in the REAL WORLD then look no further than An Introduction to Scholastic Philosophy.

Originally published under the title:''Scholasticism Old and New''In this corrected edition of a standard work, Professor Maurice de Wulf, great authority on medieval philosophy, examines the scholastic tradition. After a careful and discriminating examination of the true nature and definition of scholasticism, in which he sifts modern interpretations and misinterpretations of the scholastic spirit, he analyzes the scholastic method, scholastic philosophy in its relations to medieval philosophy in general as well as to ancient philosophy and medieval science; scholastic metaphysics, theodicy, general physics, celestial and terrestrial physics, psychology, moral philosophy and logic. The decline of medieval scholasticism is then treated. Examination is not so much in terms of individual thinkers, as is usual in histories of philosophy, as in terms of a philosophia communis of the scholastic tradition. The second part of this work examines the modern scholastic revival, with a discussion of the relations of neoscholasticism and neothomism to history of philosophy, religion, and modern science; and an examination of the neoscholastic doctrines. Considerable information is included on the neoscholastic estimation of various trends in modern philosophy.Written by one of the very greatest historians of medieval philosophy, this book is useful both as a corrective to earlier histories and as an excellent expoisition and evaluation of the scholastic position.

No detailed description available for "Mediaeval Philosophy".

This work attempts to establish a philosophy of art that is both intellectual and objective

The point of view which was chosen for treatment in these lectures is that of the relational aspects in mediaeval philosophy. It is a study which relates the philosophy to the other factors in that civilization taken as an organic whole. This is a reprint of the 1953 Dover edition.

The pedagogical aim which we have before us in this book forces us to limit ourselves to the consideration of the great and central doctrines of Thomism, and to leave aside the innumerable applications of those doctrines which may be found scattered up and down the extensive works of Thomas Aquinas. This is a reprint of the 1959 Dover edition.

The aim of the book is to meet and combat false conceptions, to co-ordinate true notions, and so to furnish the reader with some general information on old and new scholasticism. The advantage of the book is its two-sided perspective that contains historical investigations about the ancient sources of scholastic philosophy and its decline.
