Excerpt from A List of Text-Books From the Close of the Twelfth Century
Unless we emend the next line in some way so as to read quz'nque annas or some thing oi the sort for gui nos (cf. De triump/zis, p. There is some difficulty in reconciling this with the year 1245 of which Garland is writing, but the reference to the council of Lyons and the death of Alexander of Hales is too plain to admit of any other year. In any case 1204 is quite out of the question.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, likely composed towards the end of the twelfth century, comprises a list of recommended textbooks from the era. Such a list offers invaluable insight into the texts studied in mediaeval universities, which at the time served as the primary means of transmitting the knowledge of classical antiquity. The selection of textbooks reflects a transitional era in education, with the decline of classical studies and the rise of scholastic thought and the study of Arabic texts in fields like medicine and mathematics. The author, who may have been the scholar Alexander Neckam, provides a glimpse into the foundational texts used in the trivium and quadrivium, as well as in the study of theology, law, and medicine, giving us a better understanding of the educational landscape at a time of intellectual transformation.
