Abstract

Canon Van Steenberghen studies with some care and considerable scholarship the Medieval adventure with Aristotelianism, from its initiation in the twelfth century to its condemnation by the bishop of Paris in the latter part of the thirteenth. Grosseteste, Bonaventure, Albert the Great, Aquinas, and Siger of Brabant receive brief but penetrating discussions. The book deserves careful study. --L. H.
