William of Ockham, the most prestigious philosopher of the fourteenth century, was a late
Scholastic thinker who is regarded as the founder of Nominalism – the school of thought
that denies that universals have any reality apart from the individual things signified by
the universal or general term. Ockham’s Summa Logicae was intended as a basic text in
philosophy, but its originality and scope encompass his whole system of philosophy. Yet
the paucity of English translations and the structural complexity of the Latin have made
the Summa, until now, almost completely inaccessible. |
