Albert the Great (Albertus Magnus; d. 1280) is one of the most prolific authors of the Middle Ages, and the only scholar to be known as “the Great” during his own lifetime. As the only Scholastic to to have commented upon all the works of Aristotle, Albert is also known as the Universal Doctor (Doctor Universalis) for his encyclopedic intellect, which enabled him to make important contributions not only to Christian theology but also to natural science and philosophy. The contributions to this omnibus volume will introduce students of philosophy, science, and theology to the current state of research and multiple perspectives on the work of Albert the Great.

Contributors include Jan A. Aertsen, Henryk Anzulewicz, Benedict M. Ashley, Miguel de Asúa, Steven Baldner, Amos Bertolacci, Thérèse Bonin, Maria Burger, Markus Führer, Dagmar Gottschall, Jeremiah Hackett, Anthony Lo Bello, Isabelle Moulin, Timothy Noone, Mikołaj Olszewski, B.B. Price, Irven M. Resnick, Francisco J. Romero Carrasquillo, H. Darrel Rutkin, Steven C. Snyder, Michael W. Tkacz, Martin J. Tracey, Bruno Tremblay, David Twetten, Rosa E. Vargas and Gilla Wöllmer

Recenzii

"This volume is the single best introduction to Albert the Great in English and constitutes a comprehensive study of his thought."
John T. Slotemaker, Fairfield University. In: Religious Studies Review, Vol. 39, No. 4 (December 2013), p. 278.

“Insgesamt kann man feststellen, dass der Band mit dem Vorhaben, dem gesamten Denken Alberts des Großen gerecht zu werden, durchaus Erfolg hat. Auch wenn er letzten Endes nicht für Anfänger gedacht ist, so muss man dem Herausgeber Achtung für den Mut zollen, einen so komplexen und schwierigen Denker in ein letztlich immer noch handliches Format gebracht zu haben ohne auf Grundlegendes verzichten zu müssen.”
Jörg Alejandro Tellkamp, Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa. In: Das Mittelalter, Bd. 20:1 (2015), S. 213-214.
