This third collection of Charles Schmitt's articles complements the
previous two and consists largely of studies published in the last
few years of his life. It therefore contains his mature reflections
on central issues in the fields of Renaissance philosophy and
science, as well as important new research findings. The main
subjects are Aristotelianism and Scepticism, and the history of
medicine and natural philosophy. Some articles assess the place of
traditional elements in the work of major scientific innovators,
such as Galileo or Harvey, others make available new sources of
documentation and show the significance of writings others had not
deigned to look at. Charles Schmitt's insistence that Renaissance
thought should be reconstructed in terms faithful to the value
systems of the period also led to an increasing interest in the
socio-economic context of philosophical speculation, reflected here
in the studies on the University of Pisa in the 16th century.
