"The Discord of Aristotle and Plato"
Berthold of Moosburg on the Twofold Nature of the Metaphysical Quest
Series:
Author:
What is the subject of metaphysics? Throughout the centuries, two main lines of thought have emerged: one focusing on the concept of being as the adequate object of the human intellect; the other, focusing on the relation between the world and its transcendent cause. Berthold of Moosburg, often considered merely as an epitomizer of Medieval Platonism, is here shown in his deep, original engagement with the scopes and limitations of these two metaphysics, which he leads back, respectively, to Aristotle and Plato.
Giuseppe Thomas Vitale, Ph.D., Universität zu Köln and University College Dublin, is a researcher in Medieval philosophy, mainly focusing on the Neoplatonic tradition.
This book is of interest to scholars, researchers, and graduate students working on Medieval philosophy, the history of metaphysics, and neoplatonism; as well as to libraries and institutes collecting publications in these fields.
