John Buridan. - KLIMA, G.,
KORTE INHOUD
It is difficult at the best of times to render texts in the history of philosophy so that they speak to present-day philosophical concerns; even more so when one is working with materials produced in the Middle Ages. But this book achieves it. Klima is as comfortable in the world of contemporary philosophical logic and metaphysics as he is among fourteenth-century practitioners of the logica moderna, with the result that he is able to present Buridanian nominalism to modern readers in a way that loses very little in translation. The Buridan who emerges in these pages one could easily imagine having as a discussion-partner - and a formidable one at that. Jack Zupko, author of John Buridan: Portrait of a Fourteenth-Century Arts Master (Publisher's information).
