Originally published in 1993, Modalities in Medieval Philosophy
looks at the idea of modality as multiplicity of reference with
respect to alternative domains. The book examines how this emerged
in early medieval discussions and addresses how it was originally
influenced by the theological conception of God acting by choice.
After a discussion of ancient modal paradigms, the author traces
the interplay of old and new modal views in medieval logic and
semantics, philosophy and theology. A detailed account is given of
late medieval discussions of the new modal logic, epistemic logic,
and the logic norms. These theories show striking similarities to
some basic tenets of contemporary approaches to modal matters. This
work will be of considerable interest to historians of philosophy
and ideas and philosophers of logic and metaphysics.
