John Inglis

    John Inglis byl skotský misionář, který zasvětil svůj život službě na ostrově Aneityum v souostroví Nové Hebridy. Své mimořádné schopnosti, moudrá slova a rozvážné psaní používal k šíření víry a porozumění mezi místním obyvatelstvem. Díky své práci nejenže přispěl k duchovnímu životu, ale také dokumentoval jazyk Aneityum vytvořením slovníku, čímž zanechal trvalý odkaz. Jeho odhodlání a literární přínos svědčí o hlubokém dopadu jeho misijního poslání.

      Tomáš Akvinský (1225-1274), dominikánsky kňaz a filozof, žil a tvoril v čase, kedy prvé kontakty s Aristotelovým dielom v latinských prekladoch začínajú otriasať základmi tradičnej európskej vzdelanosti a problematizovať vzťah medzi náboženskou vierou a rozumom. Tomášovo dielo vytvorilo základ pre spojenie biblickej tradície a gréckej racionality a je jedným z míľnikov dejín európskeho myslenia.

      Panorama of the Thames
    • Recent writers in the historiography of philosophy have placed into question the paradigms that structure our historical writing. This volume continues this discussion with particular reference to medieval philosophy.Inglis shows that the modern historiography of medieval philosophy had its origins in certain nineteenth-century German reactions to Kantian idealism. He uncovers the philosophical, political, and theological origins of how we have come to interpret medieval philosophy according to the standard spheres of philosophy. By keeping such historiography in mind and paying attention to the context in which the medieval actually wrote, Inglis raises serious questions concerning the accuracy of the dominant model and proposes an historically sensitive alternative.The genealogy will interest medievalists and intellectual historians, the alternative model will interest historians of medieval philosophy, and theology.
