The Cambridge Companion to Abelard

Each volume of this series of companions to major philosophers contains specially commissioned essays by an international team of scholars, together with a substantial bibliography, and will serve as a reference work for students and non-specialists. One aim of the series is to dispel the intimidation such readers often feel when faced with the work of a difficult and challenging thinker.

Peter Abelard (10791142) is one of the greatest philosophers of the medieval period. Although best known for his views about universals and his dramatic love affair with Heloise, he made a number of important contributions in metaphysics, logic, philosophy of language, mind and cognition, philosophical theology, ethics, and literature. The essays in this volume survey the entire range of Abelards thought, and examine his overall intellectual achievement in its intellectual and historical context. They also trace Abelards influence on later thought and his relevance to philosophical debates today.

New readers will find this the most convenient, accessible guide to Abelard currently available. Advanced students and specialists will find a conspectus of recent developments in the interpretation of Abelard.

JEFFREY E. BROWER is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Purdue University, Indiana.
