Notes. Index of Proper Names. Index of Subjects. This book was fascinating. A real chance to get back to the Philosophical Writings of the Medieval ages. With this work and many works that will follow, a resurgance is possible of the Franciscan Philosophy. Fransican Philosphers have been very influential to modern day thinking, from the works of St. Bonaventure, Scotus, Hales, and even Ockham.His work on human knowledge is superb, also the Unity of God. Anyone with an interest in Philosophy this is a must buy!!!
Understanding Scotus demonstrates a parting of the ways in many different theological and philosophical streams that explain the controversies of today and the philosophy of Heidegger. Specifically one should note the univocatio entis of Scotus in its fundamental conflict with the analogia entis in the conflict between Karl Barth and Przywara in 1932. The Latin text will eventually be very helpful when you understand the issues.
