The Philosophy of Nicholas of Cusa - Pavel Floss
CHF 68,00 inkl. MwSt
Out of the broad variety of Cusanus' work, this book discusses six of his writings, careful not to isolate them from the whole of his work. It instead presents them against the maturation of Cusanus' thinking as it developed from his first sermons up to his shortest philosophical text De apice theoriae. The texts in question are De docta ignorantia, De coniecturis, Idiota de mente, De beryllo, Trialogus de possest and De apice theoriae. In the search for God, or rather in Cusanus' lifetime efforts to have his spirit touch the first principle and the basis of all things, new perspectives on the world and man within would open up for Cusanus. Respecting this basic intention of Cusanus' thinking, the author primarily deals with Cusanus' ontotheological (metaphysical) claims and, in their context, turns his attention to the cosmological, or anthropologico-gnoseological opinions.

Pavel Floss is a Czech philosopher, comeniologist and historian of philosophy, professor at the Palacky University in Olomouc and at the University of Hradec Kralove. He deals mainly with medieval and renaissance philosophy and the relation of contemporary philosophy to ontology and religion, as well as the relation of philosophy and art.
