Peter of Auvergne

peter of Auvergne (+1304) is one of the most productive and most influential commentators of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Paris. At the end of the 13th century Peter actually moved to the upper theological faculty, where he argued a number of quodlibeta.This volume of conference proceedings represents the first examination of the life and work of Peter of Auvergne as a whole. A comparison with contemporaneous authors demonstrates that Peter presents a thoroughly distinctive line of thought and that previous classifications must be differentiated or even discarded.
