Aspectus et Affectus: Essays and Editions in Grosseteste and Medieval Intellectual Life in Honor of Richard C. Dales

R. James Long is a contributing author, A Thirteenth Century Teaching Aid: An Edition of the Bodleian Abbreviatio of the Pseudo Aristotelian De plantis, , pp. 87-103. Book description: The 65th year of a scholar who has devoted 40 years to editing and elucidating Robert Grosseteste provides us with a collection of essays. Not surprisingly, they emanate from colleagues and former students of Richard Dales and reflect his interest, among other concerns, in Grosseteste\u27s aspectus et affectus - range of vision and disposition of mind - those twin peaks with which the 13th century thinker helped to get Christian thought through Aristotle without mutual destruction. Joining Sir Richard Southern are 8 scholars whose contributions fill two parts of this book, Robert Grosseteste and Medieval Intellectual Life . In addition to essays on Grosseteste are articles on Hugh of Amiens, Alfred of Sareschel\u27s commentary on Avicenna, the Oxford Condemnations of 1277, a 13th-century teaching aid, and canonistic determinations on the stages of childhood
