The Transcendentals And Their Function In The Metaphysics Of Duns Scotus by Allan B. Wolter is a comprehensive study of the philosophical concept of transcendentals and their role in the metaphysics of Duns Scotus, a prominent medieval philosopher. The book explores the nature of transcendentals, which include being, unity, truth, goodness, and beauty, and how they relate to the fundamental aspects of reality. Wolter provides an in-depth analysis of Scotus's understanding of the transcendentals, drawing on his extensive writings and philosophical ideas. He examines the relationship between the transcendentals and other concepts in Scotus's metaphysics, such as the notion of haecceity, the principle of individuation, and the distinction between essence and existence. The book also delves into the historical and theological context of Scotus's philosophy, discussing the influence of Aristotle, Augustine, and other medieval thinkers on his ideas. Wolter provides a clear and accessible explanation of Scotus's complex metaphysical system, making this book an essential resource for students and scholars of medieval philosophy and metaphysics. Overall, The Transcendentals And Their Function In The Metaphysics Of Duns Scotus is a thorough and insightful examination of an important philosophical concept and its role in the work of one of the most influential medieval thinkers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
