A Companion to Giles of Rome
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-31536-5 (ISBN)
In A Companion to Giles of Rome, Charles Briggs, Peter Eardley, and seven other leading specialists provide the first synoptic treatment of the thought, works, life, and legacy of Giles of Rome (c. 1243/7–1316), one of medieval Europe’s most important and influential scholastic philosophers and theologians.
The Giles that emerges from this volume was a subtle and independent thinker, who more than refining and modifying the positions of his teacher Aquinas, also made strikingly original contributions to theology, physics, metaphysics, psychology, ethics, logic, rhetoric, and political thought. He was also the founding intellectual of the Augustinian friars and a key participant in controversies at the University of Paris, and between Church and State.
Contributors are: Charles F. Briggs, Richard Cross, Silvia Donati, Peter S. Eardley, Roberto Lambertini, Costantino Marmo, Martin Pickavé, Giorgio Pini, and Cecilia Trifogli.
Charles F. Briggs, Ph.D. (1993), University of North Carolina, is Senior Lecturer in History at the University of Vermont and author of Giles of Rome’s “De regimine principum” (Cambridge UP, 1999) and The Body Broken: Medieval Europe, 1300–1520 (Routledge, 2011). Peter S. Eardley, Ph.D (2001), University of Toronto, is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Guelph. His articles on Giles of Rome have appeared in several journals and he is co-author of Aquinas: A Guide for the Perplexed (Continuum, 2010).
