Medieval Philosophy: A Multicultural Reader comprises a comparative, multicultural reading of the four main traditions of the medieval period including extensive sections on Jewish, Islamic, Latin and Greco-Roman traditions. The book also includes an initial 'predecessors' section which explains to students how to bridge the intellectual gap between Aristotle to Augustine - a span of nearly eight hundred years. It presents excerpts from Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus and Proclus from whom all four traditions have drawn. These contextualising readings provide a firm basis from which to explore medieval thought.Representative readings from each of the four great traditions are presented chronologically in four different tracks, along with engaging and accessible introductions to:*the traditions themselves* the periods within each tradition* individual thinkersAn appendix providing lists of readings under several problem headings, to assist those who prefer to read and teach medieval philosophy topically rather than chronologically. This is a cultural inclusive title which seeks to provide students with a rich, varied and comprehensive insight into the entirety of the medieval philosophical tradition.
