Description

Explore the intellectual history of the Middle Ages with The Friar and the Philosopher by Routledge. This scholarly work examines the life and impact of William of Moerbeke, a prolific translator who moved ancient Greek philosophical and scientific texts into Latin. While critics often point to his translation methods as deficient, this book presents a different perspective. It argues that Moerbeke used a deliberate approach to help medieval readers reach a correct understanding of the original source texts. By studying his massive project to translate the genuine works of Aristotle and other important authors, readers gain insight into how Aristotelian philosophy gained acceptance throughout the Latin world. This volume is an essential resource for those interested in the history of science, ancient Greek civilization, and the cultural shifts of medieval Europe.
