This volume features essays that explore the insights of the 14thcentury Parisian nominalist philosopher, John Buridan. It serves as a companion to the Latin text edition and annotated English translation of his questioncommentary on Aristotles On the Soul. The contributors survey Buridans work both in its own historicaltheoretical context and in relation to contemporary issues.The essays come in three main sections, which correspond to the three books of Buridans Questions. Coverage first deals with the classification of the science of the soul within the system of Aristotelian sciences, and surveys the main issues within it.The next section examines the metaphysics of the soul. It considers Buridans peculiar version of Aristotelian hylomorphism in dealing with the problem of what kind of entity the soul (in particular, the human soul) is, and what powers and actions it has, on the basis of which we can approach the question of its essence.The volume concludes with a look at Buridans doctrine of the nature and functions of the human intellect. Coverage in this section includes the problem of selfknowledge in Buridans theory, Buridans answer to the traditional medieval problem concerning the primary object of the intellect, and his unique treatment of logical problems in psychological contexts.
