For generations, early Franciscan thought has been widely regarded a relatively unoriginal attempt to systematize the longstanding intellectual tradition of Augustine. This volume brings leading scholars of medieval thought together to undertake the first major study of the sources and context of the so-called
Summa Halensis (1236-45), which was one of the earliest and most significant instalments in the Summa genre. This Summa was collaboratively authored by the founding members of the Franciscan school at Paris, who sought to lay down a uniquely Franciscan intellectual tradition for the first time. In examining how the Summa reckons with some of the most significant sources of the day, the contributions to the volume illustrate that early Franciscans interpreted their authorities to their own ends, developing highly innovative ideas that had a lasting impact on the Franciscan intellectual tradition and the disciplines of philosophy and theology.
