Descrizione

This volume studies the origins of Franciscan exemplarism, focusing on the main theories of divine ideas formulated in Christian circles from the Church Fathers to Bonaventure and the Franciscans active in Paris in the first half of the Thirteenth century. The texts here contained discuss the exemplarism of Augustine of Hippo, Dionysius the Areopagite, Maximus the Confessor, John of Damascus, John Scotus Eriugena, Anselm of Canterbury, the canons of Saint Victor (Hugh, Achard, Richard and Thomas Gallus), Philipp the Chancellor, and the Franciscan Alexander of Hales, John de la Rochelle, Odo Rigaldus and Bonaventure. Together with the volume Divine Ideas in Franciscan Thought (XIIIth-XIVth century) [2018], this work contributes to the reconstruction of the history of the Christian theories of divine ideas in the Middle Age.
