Scholasticism (1908) - Joseph Rickaby - Bog

Scholasticism (1908) is a book written by Joseph Rickaby, an English Jesuit priest and philosopher, that explores the history, principles, and methods of Scholasticism, a medieval philosophical and theological system that dominated European universities from the 12th to the 17th century. The book is divided into three parts: the first part provides an overview of Scholasticism and its origins in the works of Aristotle and the Church Fathers; the second part discusses the main topics of Scholastic philosophy, such as metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and natural theology; and the third part examines the decline and revival of Scholasticism in the modern era. Throughout the book, Rickaby shows a deep understanding and appreciation of Scholasticism, while also acknowledging its limitations and criticisms. He argues that Scholasticism is not a static or dogmatic system, but a dynamic and open-minded approach to philosophy and theology that seeks to reconcile reason and faith, and to explore the mysteries of God and the universe. Scholasticism (1908) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, theology, and education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
