Franciscus de Marchia Reportatio IIA
(Quaestiones in secundum librum Sententiarum) qq. 13-27
The texts edited in this volume deal with angelology and anthropology, and particularly with the nature and the functions of immaterial substances like angels and the human rational soul. Marchia discusses such controversial issues as universal hylomorphism, i.e., whether angels and the rational soul are composed of both matter and form (q. 13), the immortality of the soul (qq. 18-19), and the nature and the object of the intellect and will (qq. 20, 21), as well as the functionality of the angelic...

Platonic stoicism, Stoic Platonism
the dialogue between Platonism and Stoicism in antiquity
This book examines the important but largely neglected issue of the interrelation between Platonism and Stoicism in Ancient Philosophy. Several renowned specialists in the fields of Stoic and Platonic analyse the intricate mutual influences between Stoic and Platonic philosophers in the Hellenistic period, the Imperial Age, and after. Although it has been repeatedly claimed that the phenomenon addressed in this book could best be labelled eclecticism, it emerges from the various articles collected...

Miroir et savoir
la transmission d'un thème platonicien, des Alexandrins à la philosophie arabo-musulmane; actes du colloque international tenu à Leuven et Louvain-la-Neuve, les 17 et 18 novembre 2005
Grâce à sa grande richesse, la métaphore platonicienne du miroir a été adoptée, amplifiée et élaborée dans l'Antiquité par une multitude d'auteurs, certes tous d'inspiration platonicienne, mais appartenant à la fois au paganisme et au christianisme. Lorsqu'on étudie cette métaphore dans le corpus philosophique, mystique et poétique en terre d'Islam, on constate qu'il ne s'agit pas d'une récurrence fortuite, d'un lieu commun, d'un archétype de la pensée humaine. Il s'agit au contraire...

Petrus Thomae Petri Thomae quaestiones de esse intelligibili
First critical edition of Petrus Thomae's theory of non-causal dependence. This work of Scotist metaphysics is an investigation into the ultimate constitution of things. In the course of this treatise, Petrus Thomae examines whether the essences of things ultimately depend on being thought of by God for their very intelligibility or whether they have it of themselves. Defending in detail the second option, Peter argues that creatures exist independently of the divine intellect in the divine essence....

Alexandra Michalewski La puissance de l'intelligible
la théorie plotinienne des formes au miroir de l'héritage médioplatonicien
La nature des Formes intelligibles d'Antiochus à Plotin. L'ouvrage propose une histoire de l'interprétation de la nature des Formes intelligibles d'Antiochus à Plotin. Il met en lumière l'importance du refus plotinien de l'artificialisme médioplatonicien qui considère les Formes comme des pensées du dieu et subordonne leur causalité à celle du démiurge, fabricant du monde. En considérant les Formes comme des réalités vivantes et intellectives, Plotin bouleverse le sens de la causalité...

Francesco Verde Elachista
la dottrina dei minimi nell'epicureismo; with English summary
The first monograph entirely devoted to the Epicurean doctrine of minimal parts. The Epicurean doctrine of minimal parts (ta elachista) is a crucial aspect of Epicurus's philosophy and a genuine turning point compared to the ancient atomism of Leucippus and Democritus. This book consists of three chapters: a philological and theoretical analysis of the primary sources (Epicurus and Lucretius) of the doctrine, a reconstruction of its likely historical background (Xenocrates, Aristotle, Diodorus Cronus),...

Henricus Gandavensis Syncategoremata
Henrico de Gandavo adscripta
The Stadsbibliotheek of Brugge houses a manuscript (ms. 510, f. 227ra-237vb) that holds a short logical text on the Syncategoremata, e.g. words that are not subjects or predicates in proposition. In this manuscript the text is ascribed to Henry of Ghent, who was a leading thinker of the second half of the thirteenth century. The highly interesting text contains some typical themes of Henry of Ghent, e.g. the distinction between esse essentiae and esse existentiae, which further supports the attribution...
