'A monumental history . . . learned, lucid, patient and comprehensive.' NEW STATESMAN 'We can only applaud at the end of each act and look forward to applauding again at the final curtain.' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT Frederick Copleston was Professor of the History of Philosophy and Dean of the Faculty of Theology at London University. This eleven-volume work is one of the most remarkable single-handed scholarly enterprises of modern times. Brimming with detail and enthusiasm, A History of Philosophy gives an accessible account of philosophers from all eras and explains their works in relation to other philosophers. Each volume is an ideal guide for students studying specific eras and as a set offers a complete and unrivalled overview of the entire western philosophical tradition. Volume 2 Medieval Philosophy Copleston, in the second volume of A History of Philosophy, deals with the reconciliation of philosophy and theology of the early Christian period to the thirteenth century. He covers the Patristic period, including the work of Augustine, and then considers the Carolingian renaissance, Islamic and Jewish philosophy, before finally going into extensive detail on the thought of Aquinas and Scotus. Anselm Aquinas Augustine Averroes Avicenna Boethius Bonaventure Maimonides Scotus
