L'ontologie de Nicolas d'Autrécourt [French]

By Znon Kaluza

Nicolas d'Autr court (c. 1298-1369) est l'un des penseurs les plus audacieux de l'histoire de la philosophie, et Z non Kaluza, qui lui a consacr pr s de trente ans d' tudes, nous le fait d couvrir par ses sources, ses doctrines et ses manuscrits. Ce livre propose notamment des analyses sur des th mes importants (tels que la perception, la causalit finale, les cat gories ou l' ternit du monde) ainsi qu'une nouvelle dition des Prologues de l'Exigit ordo, enrichie d'un commentaire suivi. Les tudes--dont certaines sont parues mais difficiles d'acc s et d'autres sont in dites--d voilent la figure d'un philosophe d sirant de lib rer la philosophie des contraintes institutionnelles et de critiquer la m taphysique d'Aristote, au risque de bouleverser les traditions, de contredire les dogmes de la foi et se voir condamner par les autorit s th ologiques de son temps.

Nicolas d'Autr court (c. 1298-1369) is one of the most daring thinkers in the history of philosophy, and Z non Kaluza, who has devoted to him nearly thirty years of study, presents him to us through his sources, his doctrines and his manuscripts. The reader will find studies on some of the most relevant philosophical doctrines (such as perception, the final causality, the categories and the eternity of the world) as well as a new edition of the Prologues of the Exigit ordo, enriched with a running commentary. The texts gathered here--some of which have been published previously but are difficult to access and others which have been unpublished until now--reveal a philosopher who wished to free philosophy from institutional constraints and dared to criticize Aristotle's metaphysics, at the risk of upsetting traditions and contradicting the dogmas of the faith, and who was condemned by the theological authorities of his time.
