The Immeasurability of the Monastic Mind: Writing about Peter Abelard (1079-1142)
Abstract:
The work of Peter Abelard (1079-1142) leaves no one indifferent. Why should the writings stir up such emotions long after he became a point of reference in the history of ideas? Perhaps the most important reason is that Abelard has always been more than the author of his books. For the historians of ideas he served as an example of what it is to lead an intellectually independent life, against the standards set by society and church. It is to the credit of scholars discussed in this review essay that this historical question arising from "doing philosophy" is addressed.
