Overview

"John Duns Scotus (1265-1308), beatified by Pope St. John Paul II in 1993, is widely recognized as one of the most original and influential philosophers and theologians of the Middle Ages. Ordered by Love offers a sympathetic exploration of a wide range of Scotus's thought. Topics covered include his understanding of the relationship between faith and reason, his doctrine of individuation by ""haecceity"" (thisness), his theory of the univocity of the concept of being, his emphasis on God's freedom and its supposed consequences for moral theory, his defense of Mary's immaculate conception, and his teaching on the primacy of Christ."
