### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Good Introduction to Medieval Philosophy
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2010*

Just like the first volume I've enjoyed reading this work on Medieval Philosophy. For a casual student of philosophy this is probablyas light an introduction as can be imagined. Anything less and it would miss out on a lot of important details. Butit's a good book to start your studies in philosophy and follow up with something a bit more in-depth.

    Good enough, but WHY is Hypatia Naked?
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2014*

Dr. Kenny is the Copelston for the new generation.  Kenny's attempt to put the history of Western Phil. into four volumes (about 1100 pages) is probably good enough. The organization of volume 2 is very good: roughly 100 pages of history and another 180 pages organized by major topics. This should work well for the reader who has little or no background in Medieval European philosophy. All the prime suspects are given time in the text, even some to the lesser knows get space: Eriugena, John of Mirecouts, & St. Bernard. Kenny's topical review is balanced and does make an effort to bring up uncomfortable topics. Kenny's explanation of Aquinas on property is absolutely correct. Aquinas states explicitly  that taking the property of others is NOT a sin when taken out of need. Kenny reminds us of what genuine Christianity is about.However, Kenny does sometimes need to make connections to Frege, Wittgenstein or Russell, none of which is likely helpful to undergraduate students of philosophy. And although I might have congratulated Kenny for his inclusion of Hypathia (he does give a proper overview of what little is known of her life and work) IF he had NOT chosen to illustrate her through the use of a 19th NUDE painting. His illustrations of Augustine, Boethius, Ockham, Duns Scotus, & Averoes all seem to have found some way to put clothing on, but not Hypatia, who is depicted as a victim rather than a scholar. Sexism in philosophy has a long history and Kenny's book is only one small part of it.
