Scotus and Ockham: Selected Essays

Covers

SCOTUS AND OCKHAM Allan B. Wolter, O.F.M. is a member of the Sacred Heart Province of the Friars Minor. He held the Joe Doino Visiting Professorship at the Franciscan Institute, St. Bonaventure University, from 1997-2002. A world-renowned Scotus scholar, he continues his energetic work of preparing Latin/English texts of the philosophical and theological works of John Duns Scotus. Produced over a career spanning nearly six decades, Allan Wolter’s monumental editions, translations, commentaries and studies constitute by far the largest and most influential body of scholarship by any modern author. The present collection brings together twelve of Wolter’s seminal articles, most of which have never been reprinted, as well as two new studies written for this volume. They range over the length of Wolter’s career and represent the breadth of his interests: Scotus’s literary production and academic career, his metaphysics , ethics, and theology, and his relation to Ockham and other Franciscan theologians. This is a valuable collection for anyone working in late medieval philosophy or theology. (Stephen Dumont, Univesity of Notre Dame) Wolter’s essays combine seasoned judgment with relentless curiosity to teach us much about the meaning of what Scotus has to say.
