Reviews
"Zupko's John Buridan.... is the first full-length synthetic work on Buridan to appear in English. This book is not only a thorough exposition of Buridan's logic and a select number of related topics, but it also provides an excellent introduction to medieval philosophy as understood by one of its most accomplished late-medieval practitioners."-- Speculum, "... edifying for modern philosophers. For the historians, the book is a goldmine of information and a useful synopsis of what we know of this prominent 14th-century forerunner of the modern period." --The Medieval Review, "Zupko's book combines breadth with detailed analysis of the sources." --Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, "Buridan's thought as a whole deserves to be better known, and in this comprehensive examination of it Zupko has provided a model of historical and philosophical scholarship." --Dialogue, "Zupko's John Buridan.... is the first full-length synthetic work on Buridan to appear in English. This book is not only a thorough exposition of Buridan's logic and a select number of related topics, but it also provides an excellent introduction to medieval philosophy as understood by one of its most accomplished late-medieval practitioners."--Speculum, "...it is an excellent book, and will... do a great deal to make Buridan's philosophical views more accessible to philosophers who are not mediaeval specialists. Zupko's work [is] an excellent and informative addition to our knowledge of Buridan." --Philosophy in Review, "Jack Zupko's excellent book offers the coherent overall picture of John Buridan's thoughts that the subject has been waiting for. ...I admire Jack Zupko's achievement. This book is an excellent piece of work, which will help to rescue the legacy of John Buridan from neglect." --The Philosophical Quarterly, "Zupko's book is a work by one of the leading scholars on Buridan and a considerable contribution to Buridan studies." --Ars Disputandi, "Jack Zupko's John Buridan: Portrait of a Fourteenth-Century Arts Master argues that 'virtually all of Buridan's written work is based on the arts curriculum at Paris, and reflects his pedagogical concerns as a member of that faculty' and that 'Buridan made his most lasting contribution as a teacher.' Besides emphasizing Buridan's role as a teacher in the Arts Faculty at Paris, Zupko sees Buridan as an early leading figure in the secularization of philosophy, that is, in its separation from theology." --History of Universities, "In this outstanding book, Zupko provides the first critical study in any language of the philosophy of one of the most significant arts masters of the 14th century, John Buridan. This work of impeccable scholarship in the history of late medieval thought will interest all scholars of medieval philosophy." --Choice, "Zupko's John Buridan.... is the first full-length synthetic work on Buridan to appear in English. This book is not only a thorough exposition of Buridan's logic and a select number of related topics, but it also provides an excellent introduction to medieval philosophy as understood by one of its most accomplished late-medieval practitioners." --Speculum, "This book is at once an accessible introduction to nominalist philosophy and an intellectual biography of one of the most important figures in the history of Scholasticism." --First Things

Synopsis
John Buridan (ca. 1300-1361) was the most famous philosophy teacher of his time, and probably the most influential. In this important new book, Jack Zupko offers the first systematic exposition of Buridan's thought to appear in any language. Zupko uses Buridan's own conception of the order and practice of philosophy to depict the most salient features of his thought, beginning with his views on the nature of language and logic and then illustrating their application to a series of topics in metaphysics, natural philosophy, and ethics., John Buridan (ca. 1300-1361) was the most famous philosophy teacher of his time, and probably the most influential. In this important new book, Jack Zupko offers the first systematic exposition of Buridan's thought to appear in any language. Zupko uses Buridan's own conception of the order and practice of philosophy to depict the most salient features of his thought, beginning with his views on the nature of language and logic and then illustrating their application to a series of topics in metaphysics, natural philosophy, and ethics. Part 1 of John Buridan considers the picture of language and logic developed in Buridan's Summulae de dialectica. Buridan systematically overhauled the logic he first learned and later taught at the University of Paris, redeeming the older tradition of Aristotelian logic in terms, propositions, and arguments. This made possible newer and more powerful forms of philosophical discourse. The second part of this volume provides a reading of Buridan's philosophy, showing how this discourse shaped his treatment of speculative questions such as the relation between soul and body, the nature of knowledge, the proper subject of psychology, the function of the virtues, and the freedom of the will. This groundbreaking book is sure to become the standard work on John Buridan.

    Item was exactly as described and packaged to protect it. Seller’s pricing was spot on and when I received it, it was in good condition. Seller actually messaged me when they shipped it (I really appreciated that). Overall I’m happy doing business with them!

    Very good customer service. Postage was very quick. Unfortunately the packaging wasn't enough to protect the item from a heavy blow and it arrived damaged, but zuber was responsive to the situation. Obviously I'd prefer if nothing had gone wrong, but the real test of customer service is how someone responds when things DO go wrong, and I've got nothing but praise for Katie's communication with me.
