On the Threshold of Exact Science: Selected Writings of Anneliese Maler (Middle Ages Series)

By Steven Sargent and Anneliese Maier

Translated into English for the first time, the writings of the twentieth-century scholar Annelise Maier on late medieval natural philosophy are here made accessible to a broader audience. The seven selections represent both Maier's earlier and later works. Her perceptions as a trained philosopher, coupled with her familiarity with the full range of primary source material, result in these rare insights into the historical importance of medieval science.
