Description: "In examining the influence of ancient Greek philosophy, as well as the Arabian and Hebrew scholars who transmitted it, Historical Dictionary of Medieval Philosophy and Theology presents the philosophy of the Christian West from the 9th to the early 17th century. This is accomplished through a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on philosophers, concepts, institutions, and events, making this an invaluable reference on the progression of human thought."--Jacket.
