Reviews

No essay here is a dud [...]. The contributors all do a fine job of grounding Giles's thought in the debates of his day, pinpointing where Giles makes novel contributions to philosophical and theological problems, and where his influence seems to have been most pronounced. Jonathan Robinson, in: Speculum, Vol. 95, No. 2 (April 2020), pp. 526-528. This Companion is [...] not only a welcome addition to the shelves of those interested in late medieval thought, but a notable reminder of Giles's influence among his contemporaries. [...] The chapters are of an extremely high quality, written by leading experts in the field. [...] The book is equipped with excellent bibliographies and a comprehensive index. [...] Overall, the volume is exactly what a good companion should be: informed and thought-provoking. Chris Jones, University of Canterbury. In: Parergon, Vol. 37, No. 2 (2020), pp. 182-184.
