Overview"The period following the early 1980s have seen a torrent of consequential international research on the life and work of Meister Eckhart, research which has pursued evermore specialized investigations into the historical late-medieval and even regional context of his life and work and delivered new information about its chronology, its sources and its influence. This book takes a thorough look at Eckhart's achievements and covers such topics as: from Albert the great to Meister Eckhart by way of Theodoric of Freiberg; the development of thought in the ""Quaestio Parisiensis I""; the essence of God as reason; the difference between analogue relation and univocity; the paradigm ""archetype-image"" and Eckhart's imago theory."
