About the Book

This volume contains the first critical edition and a complete English translation of the well-known correspondence conducted by the fourteenth-century 'sceptic' author, Nicholas of Autrecourt, with Bernard of Arezzo and a Master Giles. In the Introduction the extant manuscripts are analysed and the different positions of Nicholas, Bernard and Giles are discussed; the purport of Giles' reply to Nicholas is, contrary to common opinion, identified as a defence of Aristotelianism rather than of Bernard's 'sceptic' views. Two appendices contain the first critical edition of the records of the Avignon trial against Nicholas found in the Vatican Archives, and the "Condemned Articles" with an English translation. The volume is rounded off with extensive indexes, which facilitate the use of the book as a source for the history of fourteenth-century thought.

About the Author :
L.M. de Rijk (1924) is Emeritus Professor of Ancient and Medieval Philosophy at the University of Leiden, and Honorary Professor in the State University of Maastricht. He has been a member of the Dutch Parliament (Senate 1956-1991; Deputy Speaker, 1980-1991) and is a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (K.N.A.W.). He is the author of a large number of publications on ancient and medieval philosophy, including La philosophie au moyen âge, (Brill, 1985); and (with Joke Spruyt ed.) Peter of Spain (Petrus Hispanus Portug.): Syncategoreumata. First critical edition with an introduction and indexes. With an English translation, (Brill, 1992).

Review :
'Le volume embrasse probablement tout ce qu'aujourd'hui on peut savoir des Lettres et des circonstances dans lesquelles ont été écrtites.' Revue des Sciences Philosophiques et Theologiques, 1995. 'Travail méritoire, utile pour les médiévistes qui témoigne que jadis -déjà- les gens ne s'inclinaient pas automatiquement devant une interdiction de Rome.' E. Manning Bulletin Codicologique, 1995. 'De Rijk's critical edition and translation is both important and timely...This edition and English translation of Nicholas's philosophical works and related documents is an indispensable point of departure for any future studies on fourteenth-century philosophy in general and on the philosophy of Nicholas in particular.' Ivan Boh, Speculum, 1996.
