John Duns Scotus is commonly recognized as one of the most original
thinkers of medieval philosophy. His influence on subsequent
philosophers and theologians is enormous and extends well beyond
the limits of the Middle Ages. His thought, however, might be
intimidating for the non-initiated, because of the sheer number of
topics he touched on and the difficulty of his style. The eleven
essays collected here, especially written for this volume by some
of the leading scholars in the field, take the reader through
various topics, including Duns Scotus's intellectual environment,
his argument for the existence of God, and his conceptions of
modality, order, causality, freedom, and human nature. This volume
provides a reliable point of entrance to the thought of Duns Scotus
while giving a snapshot of some of the best research that is now
being done on this difficult but intellectually rewarding thinker.
