This book is the result of a collective attempt to give a general
survey of the development of atomism and its critics in the late
Middle Ages. All the contributors focussed on the thirteenth and
fourteenth centuries atomists and anti-atomists, with a thorough
examination of some important figures, as Nicholas of Autrecourt or
John Wyclif, and lesser known as Gerard of Odo or William Crathorn
for example. From those essays on particular authors a new way of
understanding the discussions of atomism in late medieval
philosophy and theology emerges. This volume demonstrates the
existence of strong and complicated connections between natural
philosophy, mathematics and theology in the medieval discussions of
the atomistic hypothesis. All chapters present a new research that
will be of interest to historians of medieval philosophy, science
and theology. Contributors include: Joel Biard, Sander W. de Boer,
Jean Celeyrette, Christophe Grellard, Elzbieta Jung, Emily Michael,
John E. Murdoch, Robert Podkonski, Aurelien Robert, and Rega Wood.
