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. 517 3 $aGod & Reason in the Middle Ages 606 $aReason$xHistory 606 $aFaith and reason$xChristianity$xHistory of doctrines 606 $aLearning and scholarship$xHistory$yMedieval, 500-1500 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zEurope$xHistory 615 0$aReason$xHistory. 615 0$aFaith and reason$xChristianity$xHistory of doctrines. 615 0$aLearning and scholarship$xHistory 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xHistory. 676 $a189 700 $aGrant$b Edward$f1926-$0853169 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454931003321 996 $aGod and reason in the Middle Ages$92458871 997 $aUNINA
