Of crucial significance was the invention of the university around 1200, within which reason was institutionalized and where it became a deeply embedded, permanent feature of Western thought and culture. It is therefore appropriate to speak of an Age of Reason in the Middle Ages, and to view it as a forerunner and herald of the Age of Reason that was to come in the seventeenth century. The object of this study is twofold: to describe how reason was manifested in the curriculum of medieval universities, especially in the subjects of logic, natural philosophy and theology; and to explain how the Middle Ages acquired an undeserved reputation as an age of superstition, barbarism, and unreason.ReasonHistoryFaith and reasonChristianityHistory of doctrinesLearning and scholarshipHistoryMedieval, 500-1500Universities and collegesEuropeHistoryReasonHistory.Faith and reasonChristianityHistory of doctrines.Learning and scholarshipHistoryUniversities and collegesHistory.189Grant Edward1926-1749158MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815681803321God and reason in the Middle Ages4183182UNINA
