On May 26th, 1328, under cover of night, a group of figures moves in darkness, preparing for a long journey. Their apartments in the old episcopal palace of Avignon, France, are otherwise quiet and still. Among the items in their small bundles is the official seal of the Franciscan Order, necessary for the Order to conduct its official business. These men are going to steal it, and take it with them, as they slip out of the compound. But they are not simple thieves, in fact they are all Franciscans themselves, and one of them is the Minister General of the Order. Another is a forty-year-old Englishman, the greatest European thinker of his day, whose career is about to be wrecked by his defiance of the Pope and flight into exile. William of Ockham was very original and provocative. He had a new and uncompromising approach to logic and language. Some people claim he invented the idea of church-state separation. Others call him the first modern philosopher or the skeptic who put an end to the harmonious medieval alliance of faith and reason. In Ockham Explained, Rondo Keele gives us a vivid, accurate picture of Ockham, his life, his thought, and his contribution to philosophy. źródło opisu: http://www.opencourtbooks.com/books_n/ockham.htm źródło okładki: http://www.opencourtbooks.com/books_n/ockham.htm
