The Discovery of the Individual, 1050-1200 (Medieval academy reprints for teaching): 19 (MART: The Medieval Academy Reprints for Teaching) - Softcover

From the Back Cover:
In this book Professor Morris presents a scholarly reappraisal of the origins of a concept which we have come to take for granted as an essential attribute of Western Christian society, that of the individual. He traces this back to the rich, mobile civilization of medieval Europe in the twelfth century. It is perhaps surprising that, in spite of the many specialized works have contributed to our understanding of medieval civilization, so many misconceptions persist about its character.
About the Author:
Colin Morris is Professor of Medieval History at the University of Southampton and Supernumary Fellow of Pembroke College, Oxford.

Book Description Paper Back. Condition: New. 'Man, know yourself.' The answer of the Delphic Apollo was taken up pervasively in the twelfth century by such writers as Peter Abelard, William of St. Thierry, Bernard of Clairvaux and others. Linking the Delphic quotation to Song of Songs 1:7 (''If you do not know yourself, go forth.'') medieval scholars and saints began to preach, investigate and recommend the discipline of self-discovery in devotion, ethics, and politics. In most archaeologies of the self as we understand it in contemporary Western culture, the digging stops with the thirteenth century renaissance--the Thomistic distinctions of reason and revelation; natural and supernatural; nature and grace. Morris pushes further and argues his case compellingly. 188 pp. Seller Inventory # 55879
