Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Index.From the twelfth to the seventeenth century, Aristotle’s writings lay at the foundation of Western culture, providing a body of knowledge and a set of analytical tools applicable to all areas of human investigation. Scholars of the Renaissance have emphasized the remarkable longevity and versatility of Aristotelianism, but they have mainly focused on the Latin tradition. Scarce, if any, attention has gone to vernacular works. Nonetheless, several important Renaissance figures wished to make Aristotle’s works accessible and available outside the narrow circle of professional philosophers and university professors to a broad set of readers. The thesis underpinning this book is that Italian vernacular Aristotelianism, especially in the field of logic, made fundamental contributions to the thought of the period, anticipating many of the features of early modern philosophy and contributing to a new conception of knowledge.Medieval and Renaissance authors and texts ;Volume 12.Language and languagesPhilosophyHistoryLogicHistory16th centuryEuropean literatureRenaissance, 1450-1600Language and languagesPhilosophyHistory.LogicHistoryEuropean literature149/.910945Sgarbi Marco1982-325167MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789110403321The Italian mind3737616UNINA
