Concepts of Nature

Ancient and Modern

Herausgeber: Snell, R J; McGuire, Steven F

Beschreibung

This volume asks how and why the concept of nature has changed its meaning in modernity and whether a rearticulation of premodern ideas about nature is possible. Building on the work of Voegelin, Strauss, Lonergan, Finnis, and others, the book compares and contrasts classical, medieval, and modern conceptions of nature.
