    The lectio ultima on Peter Lombard’s Sentences. Characteristics of the Genre Based on the Examples Preserved From the University of Cracow in the Fifteenth Century.Wojciech Baran - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:211-242.
    This article deals with the lectio ultima, the last lecture on Peter Lombard’s Sentences, written by theologians from the University of Cracow in the fi fteenth century. Previous studies concerning the last question from Cracow did not recognize it as a specifi c literary genre or acknowledge its characteristics. This article will attempt to disclose these. There is a strong relationship between the lectiones ultimae and the principia on the Sentences, which, thus far, has not been described in the literature. (...)

    Siger of Brabant on Determinism: A Reassessment of De necessitate et contingentia causarum.Francesco Binotto - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:31-54.
    In this paper I discuss Siger of Brabant’s anti-deterministic argument as developed in De necessitate et contingentia causarum. First, I offer an in-depth reconstruction of how Siger justifi es the contingency of effects in nature: the contingent status of an effect depends only on (the contingent status of) its proximate cause, and not on the First Cause. According to Siger, the First Cause, which is understood as a necessary cause, only determines the necessity of its immediate effect. I, then show (...)

    Refl ections on Walter Chatton’s Reportatio and Lectura.William Courtenay - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:99-108.
    Walter Chatton’s Reportatio has been dated to 1322-23, possibly at London, and his Lectura either as a revision of bachelor lectures given earlier at Oxford, or given after 1323. Stephen Brown has shown that material in Chatton’s Lectura dates to 1323-1324 when Chatton and Ockham were disputing in the same place, presumably London, before Ockham left England forever. The present article shows how arguments dating to one place and time can be used in a later work, and should not be (...)

    Did Henry of Ghent Serve on the Commission that Prepared the Articles Condemned in 1277?William J. Courtenay - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:171-178.
    This reexamination of documents purporting to show that Henry of Ghent served on a commission of 16 theologians that compiled the 219 articles condemned in 1277 produces a different picture. It shows that Henry did not serve on a special commission appointed by bishop Tempier but was present at a meeting of all masters, who condemned the articles. It also shows that Tempier did not bypass masters in the faculty of theology, but had them vote on the articles.

    Henry of Harclay’s Commentary on the Second Book of the Sentences. With an Edition of Harclay’s Quaestio de potentia materiae ( Sent. II d. 12 q. 1). [REVIEW]Alessandro De Pascalis - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:55-97.
    The present contribution focuses on Harclay’s Parisian Commentary on the Sentences and is divided into two sections. The fi rst section (§1) is devoted to the attribution to Harclay of a Commentary on the second book of the Sentences, a controversial issue among scholars for decades. In this fi rst section, after having reconstructed in more detail the status quaestionis about the attribution of the Commentary contained in the ms. BAV, Borgh. 346, I will present new evidence in support of (...)

    Using Medicine to Explain Meteorological Principles. Remarks on Two Parisian Question Commentaries on the Meteorologica of Aristotle.Chiara Marcon - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:179-209.
    From Hippocrates and Galen, meteorological medicine studied the impact of environmental factors and weather phenomena on mental and bodily health. This theory has been largely diffused by medical works and encyclopaedias, such as those of Vincentius de Beauvais and Bartholomeus Anglicus. However, its reception within mediaeval meteorology still remains to be fully inquired, partly because it was not a traditional topic to be discussed in the question commentaries on the Meteorologica of Aristotle. This article aims to focus on three Parisian (...)

    Dietrich von Freibergs Theorie des menschlichen Intellekts – gibt es Parallelen zur Transzendentalphilosophie Kants?Michael Schmidt - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:109-149.
    In 1972, Kurt Flasch broke new ground with his contentious thesis that Dietrich von Freiberg, as early as 1300, had formulated a theory of productive subjectivity. Flasch argues that Dietrich recognized the object-constituting function of the mind conceived in transcendental terms, much in the same vein as Immanuel Kant’s so-called Copernican Revolution. Despite the ongoing controversy surrounding this thesis, Kant has been noticeably neglected in the relevant scholarly discussion. The following paper will address this oversight through a comparative analysis of (...)

    On Medieval Rationality.José Filipe Silva - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:151-169.
    Recent scholarship has focused on the notion of ‘rationality’ and the consequences of different conceptions to the characterization of the human-animal divide. In this article, I attempt to further muddle the waters by considering examples of stricter requirements being imposed on what counts to be rational. I argue that whereas many medieval authors were willing to identify similarities in the way humans and non-human animals behave and process information, they also tended to emphasize the differences in those processes: human processes (...)

    Ratio practica in Alberto Magno e Tommaso d’Aquino. Una ricognizione lessicografi ca.Irene Zavattero - 2024 - Bulletin de Philosophie Medievale 66:3-30.
    The article analyzes the occurrences and meaning of the expression ratio practica in the works of Albertus Magnus and Thomas Aquinas. A lexicographical survey shows that ratio practica appears in the philosophical vocabulary of Latin medieval philosophy starting from the second quarter of the thirteenth century. In particular, it occurs with some frequency in the early works of Albertus Magnus (before 1250), who uses ratio practica in connection with Augustine of Hippo’s theory of the double reason (ratio superior and ratio (...)
