Inside view of fifty years of the Aristoteles Latinus project, a cornerstone of the study of medieval intellectual history.For fifty years, the Aristoteles Latinus project has deepened our understanding of how Aristotle entered the Latin Middle Ages. Based in Leuven and rooted in early twentieth-century international collaboration, the Aristoteles Latinus project has traced the complex paths by which Aristotle’s works were translated, read, and transmitted in medieval times. This volume brings together studies first presented at a conference celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the project's residence in Leuven and offers leading international scholars’ perspectives on the project’s ongoing work, ranging from manuscript traditions, philology and translation to natural philosophy, logic, metaphysics, and the study of medieval manuscripts. Together, the contributions show how deeply Aristotelian thought permeated medieval intellectual culture and highlight the continued vitality and range of current research on Aristoteles Latinus. The book will be of interest to historians of philosophy, medievalists, and philologists and anyone curious about medieval intellectual life.
