| Anthony Kenny on Medieval Philosophy: Section 1 http://img.youtube.com/vi/RfS1VFdZk7o/default.jpg- Anthony Kenny on Medieval Philosophy: Section 1
- Medieval Philosophy: Thomas Aquinas
This program examines the ideas of the medieval philosophic theologians, particularly St. Thomas Aquinas. Oxford medieval philosopher Anthony Kenny discusses Aristotelian logic as the basis of Aquinas thought, and disputes charges that medieval philosophy merely reinforced extant Christian views. Logical methods employed by Aquinas are discussed as precursors of the scientific methodology of later philosophers, such as Descartes. |
