The book The Transcendentals And Their Function In The Metaphysics Of Duns Scotus written by Allan B. Wolter is a comprehensive study of the metaphysical philosophy of Duns Scotus, a medieval philosopher and theologian. The book focuses on the concept of transcendentals, which are the properties of being that are common to all things, such as unity, truth, goodness, and beauty. Wolter explores Scotus's understanding of the transcendentals and their role in his metaphysical system, arguing that they are essential for understanding the nature of reality.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of Scotus's metaphysical system and the role of the transcendentals within it. The second part focuses on each of the transcendentals individually, examining Scotus's understanding of their nature and function. The third and final part of the book explores the relationship between the transcendentals and other key concepts in Scotus's philosophy, such as being, essence, and existence.Throughout the book, Wolter provides detailed analysis of Scotus's texts and engages with contemporary scholarship on his philosophy. The book is aimed at scholars and students of medieval philosophy, but it will also be of interest to anyone interested in the history of philosophy and metaphysics. Overall, The Transcendentals And Their Function In The Metaphysics Of Duns Scotus is an important contribution to the study of Scotus's philosophy and the role of the transcendentals in medieval metaphysics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
