The guideline of our texts’ reading will be the doctrine of the intelligible species. Such doctrine, elaborated by the theologians of the 13th century to bridge the gap between material and spiritual domain, arrives to Descartes’ day. At the end of the course, the student will be able to: - gain a general knowledge of some of the main topics of medieval theories of cognition, placing the texts taken into consideration within their proper historical and intellectual context; - accurately analyze a medieval text, as well as critically read and compare the secondary literature on that matter; - show the understanding of the text in an oral presentation and a class discussion; - measure the long-term influence of medieval theories of cognition and establishing parallelisms between the presented authors - using a late scholastic text as an encyclopaedia and a work instrument. |
