Victor M. Salas Immanent transcendence
Francisco Suárez’s doctrine of being
Long considered one of late scholasticism's most important thinkers, Francisco Suárez has, paradoxically enough, often been treated only in relation to other medieval authors or as a transitional figure in the shift from medieval to early modern philosophy. As such, his thought has often been obscured and framed in terms of an alien paradigm. This book seeks to correct such approaches and examines Suárez's metaphysical thinking as it stands on its own. Suárez is shown to be much more in line with...

Ioannis Papachristou John Philoponus on Physical Place
This book examines the place of physical bodies, a major topic of natural philosophy that has occupied philosophers since antiquity. Aristotle's conceptions of place (topos) and the void (kenon), as expounded in the Physics, were systematically repudiated by John Philoponus (ca. 485-570) in his philosophical commentary on that work. The primary philosophical concern of the present study is the in-depth investigation of the concept of place established by Philoponus, putting forward the claim that...

Summistae
the commentary tradition on Thomas Aquinas’ Summa Theologiae from the 15th to the 17th centuries
Thomas Aquinas' Summa theologiae is one of the classics in the history of theology and philosophy. Beyond its influence in the Middle Ages, its importance is also borne out by the fact that it became the subject of commentary. During the sixteenth century it was gradually adopted as the official text for the teaching of scholastic theology in most European Catholic universities. As a result, university professors throughout Europe and the colonial Americas started lecturing and producing commentaries...

Thomas H. Macho Van wie is je leven?
cultuurgeschiedenis van de zelfdoding
Volgens Albert Camus is er maar één serieus filosofisch probleem: de zelfdoding. Van wie is je leven? laat met vele voorbeelden zien welke betekenis suïcide in de westerse cultuur heeft gekregen. Volgens Thomas Macho vond in de twintigste eeuw een belangrijke verschuiving plaats in hoe wij tegen zelfdoding aankijken. We hebben een andere stervenscultuur gekregen. Waar suïcide eerder vooral als uitdrukking van psychologische ziekte werd beschouwd, zien wij haar nu in toenemende mate in termen...
