Description
This highly regarded essay seeks to unify medieval culture by emphasizing its common institutions. The controlling theme is scholastic. Defined in a technical sense, it is simply that manner of thinking, teaching, and writing devised in and characteristic of the medieval schools. From the Preface: "Unity of theme can best be achieved by ignoring what is irrelevant. To concentrate my efforts, I have limited attention chronologically to the eleventh through the thirteenth centuries and geographically to France and Italy, when and where, I believe, scholastic culture attained its apogee." -- from back cover.
First Sentence
On 12 August 1257, two Italian friars, the Franciscan Bonaventure and the Dominican Thomas Aquinas, were admitted as teaching masters into the faculty of theology of the university of Paris.
