Provenanace: From the private collection of german philosopher Philipp W. Rosemann, with his library-stam to the endpapers. Original Provenance of some of these Volumes is the "Universite Catholique de Louvain - Bibliotheque de L'Institut Superieur de Philosophie" (with several Volumes bearing the Exlibris of the University-Library but Professor Rosemann having acquired these directly from the library during a sale of duplicates etc.). Siger of Courtrai (Sigerus de Cortraco, Siger de Courtrai, Sigerus de Curtraco, Siger von Colterato, Siger von Courtrai, Zeger van Kortrijk). Born about 1283 in Courtrai. ca. 1309 Regent master of arts in Paris. 1310 Fellow of the Sorbonne. 1315 Procurator ofthe Sorbonne. Died May 1341 in Paris (Logicmuseum) _______________________________________________________________________________________ Siger of Brabant (Sigerus, Sighier, Sigieri or Sygerius de Brabantia; c. 1240 before 10 November 1284) was a 13th-century philosopher from the southern Low Countries who was an important proponent of Averroism. Little is known about many of the details of his life. In 1266, he was attached to the Faculty of Arts in the University of Paris at the time when a riot erupted between the French and Picard "nations" of studentsa series of loosely organized fraternities. The papal legate threatened Siger with execution as the ringleader of the Picard attack on the French, but no further action was taken. In the ten years following the riot, he wrote the six works which are ascribed to him and were published under his name by Pierre Mandonnet in 1899. The titles of these treatises are: De anima intellectiva (1270) Quaestiones logicales Quaestiones naturales De aeternitate mundi Quaestio utrum haec sit vera: Homo est animal nullo homine existente Impossibilia In 1271, he was once more involved in a party struggle. The minority among the "nations" chose him as rector in opposition to the elected candidate, Aubri de Rheims. For three years the strife continued, and was probably based on the opposition between the Averroists, Siger and Pierre Dubois, and the more orthodox schoolmen. The matter was settled by the Papal Legate, Simon de Brion, afterwards Pope Martin IV. Siger retired from Paris to Liège. Siger was accused of teaching "double truth"that is, saying one thing could be true through reason, and that the opposite could be true through faith. Because Siger was a scholastic, he probably did not teach double truths but tried to find reconciliations between faith and reason. In 1277, a general condemnation of Aristotelianism included a special clause directed against Boetius of Dacia and Siger of Brabant. Again Siger and Bernier de Nivelles were summoned to appear on a charge of heresy, especially in connection with the Impossibilia, where the existence of God is discussed. It appears, however, that Siger and Boetius fled to Italy and, according to John Peckham, archbishop of Canterbury, then perished miserably. The manner of Siger's death, which occurred at Orvieto, is not known. A Brabantine chronicle says that he was stabbed by a seemingly-insane secretary (a clerico suo quasi dementi). The secretary is said to have used a pen as the murder weapon and Siger's critics claimed that, since he had done so much damage with his pen, he had deserved that kind of death. Dante, in the Paradiso (x.1346), says that Siger found "death slow in co.…
