Abstract

The focus of this book is on the theory of infinity in Lawrence of Lindores' commentary on Aristotle's "Physics". Written shortly before 1400, Lindores' text played an important role in disseminating the natural philosophy of John Buridan and his disciples in the 15th century. In the first part of this book, Lindores' concept of science is discussed and a detailed analysis of his treatment of infinity and related topics (continuity, the eternity of the world) is given. Subsequently an assessment of his ideas from the point of view of modern mathematics is attempted and some interesting similarities between medieval theories of infinity and recent developments in mathematics are outlined. The second part contains the relevant questions from Lindores' commentary (book I, qu. 1-5, 10; book III, qu. 13-18; book VI, qu. 9-10; book VIII, qu. 3), which are presented here for the first time in a critical edition based on all seven manuscripts of the text.Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Theorie des Unendlichen in dem kurz vor 1400 verfaßten Kommentar des Lorenz von Lindores zur „Physik" des Aristoteles, der im 15. Jh. eine wichtige Rolle spielte bei der Verbreitung der Naturphilosophie Johannes Buridans und seiner Schüler. Im ersten Teil des Buches wird die Wissenschaftstheorie Lindores' in ihren Grundzügen dargestellt, danach werden seine Ausführungen zum Unendlichen und zu damit zusammenhängenden Themen (Struktur des Kontinuums, Ewigkeit der Welt) detailliert analysiert. Abschließend wird eine Bewertung dieser Theorien aus der Sicht der modernen Mathematik versucht, wobei sich bemerkenswerte Ähnlichkeiten zwischen mittelalterlichen Theorien des Unendlichen und neueren Entwicklungen in der Mathematik zeigen. Der zweite Teil bietet erstmals eine kritische Edition aller einschlägigen Quaestionen aus Lindores' Physikkommentar (Buch I, qu. 1-5, 10; Buch III, qu. 13-18; Buch VI, qu. 9-10; Buch VIII, qu. 3) auf der Basis aller sieben Handschriften des Textes.

Abstract

This volume examines a selection of late medieval works devoted to the intensive infinite in order to draw a comprehensive picture of the context, character and importance of scholastic efforts to reason philosophically about divine infinity. As Dominican masters face Franciscan 'spirituals' and as university-trained theologians face evangelical laymen, the purpose and meaning of divine infinity shift, reflecting a basic tension between the Church's Petrine vocation for geopolitical orthodoxy and its more Pauline mission to promote Christian orthopraxis. The first part of the book traces the scholastic defense of divine infinity from the holocaust of Montségur up to John Duns Scotus. The second part examines the semiotic breakthrough initiated by William of Ockham and the subsequent penetration of infinist theory into a wide variety of disciplines.

Abstract

Mensen veroorzaken catastrofes, maar wat nog bedenkelijker is: ze sluiten voor deze catastrofes de ogen. Ze wenden zich af van wat ze aanrichten.Ze vluchten voor het onverdraaglijke besef dat hun bestaan getekend is door een niet ongedaan te maken tekort.Dirk De Schutter gaat te rade bij belangrijke twintigste- eeuwse filosofen en bij de psychoanalyse om dit tekort te tekenen en existentiële ervaringen,zoals verveling, rouw, luiheid, te beschrijven. Hij doet eveneens een beroep op kunst en literatuur om de grote gebeurtenissen uit de afgelopen eeuwte becommentariëren: de ontwikkelingen in wetenschap en technologie, de twee wereldoorlogen, de shoah. De auteur poogt aan te tonen dat de ontsporingenvan de westerse cultuur hun oorsprong vinden in het onvermogen van de mens om met zichzelf en het eigen tekort in het reine te komen.Hoe kunnen wij met deze (on)menselijke conditie omgaan?
