Aristotle in Coimbra

Aristotle in Coimbra is the first book to cover the history of both the College of Arts in Coimbra and its most remarkable cultural product, the Cursus Conimbricensis, examining early Jesuit pedagogy as performed in one of the most important colleges run by the Society of Jesus in the sixteenth century. _x005F_x000D_ This book provides both a narrative of the historical background behind the publication of the Cursus and an analysis of the major philosophical and educational issues addressed by its commentaries and disputations on Aristotle's writings. It is valuable reading for all those interested in intellectual history, the history of education and the history of philosophy.
