Scholasticism is a classic work of philosophy written by Joseph Rickaby and originally published in 1908. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history, principles, and methods of scholastic philosophy, which was the dominant intellectual tradition in medieval Europe. Rickaby begins by tracing the origins of scholasticism to the early Christian theologians, and then explores the development of scholastic philosophy in the Middle Ages, including the works of such notable figures as Thomas Aquinas, John Duns Scotus, and William of Ockham. He describes the key concepts and arguments of scholasticism, such as the nature of God, the relationship between faith and reason, and the role of logic in philosophy. Throughout the book, Rickaby emphasizes the importance of scholasticism as a way of thinking that is both rigorous and systematic, and that seeks to reconcile the insights of reason with the truths of faith. He also discusses the criticisms that have been leveled against scholasticism over the years, including charges of obscurity, pedantry, and dogmatism. Overall, Scholasticism is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, the development of medieval thought, or the relationship between faith and reason. It is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
