During the seventeenth century Francisco Suarez was considered one
of the greatest philosophers of the age. He was the last great
Scholastic thinker and profoundly influenced the thought of his
contemporaries within both Catholic and Protestant circles. Suarez
contributed to all fields of philosophy, from natural law, ethics,
and political theory to natural philosophy, the philosophy of mind,
and philosophical psychology, and-most importantly-to metaphysics,
and natural theology. Echoes of his thinking reverberate through
the philosophy of Descartes, Locke, Leibniz, and beyond. Yet
curiously Suarez has not been studied in detail by historians of
philosophy. It is only recently that he has emerged as a
significant subject of critical and historical investigation for
historians of late medieval and early modern philosophy. Only in
recent years have small sections of Suarez's magnum opus, the
Metaphysical Disputations, been translated into English, French,
and Italian. The historical task of interpreting Suarez's thought
is still in its infancy. The Philosophy of Francisco Suarez is one
of the first collections in English written by the leading scholars
who are largely responsible for this new trend in the history of
philosophy. It covers all areas of Suarez's philosophical
contributions, and contains cutting-edge research which will shape
and frame scholarship on Suarez for years to come-as well as the
history of seventeenth-century generally. This is an essential text
for anyone interested in Suarez, the seventeenth-century world of
ideas, and late Scholastic or early modern philosophy.
