The Legacy of the Bologna studium in Peter Auriol’s Hylomorphism

A significant portion of Scholastic learning and literature during the later Middle Ages was produced in the studia or study-houses of religious orders, rather than in universities. These studia, which outnumbered and were more widely distributed across Europe than universities, served as primary educational institutions for members of mendicant orders, including prominent figures like Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, and John Duns Scotus. Additionally, the Papal Court, notably at the Sacred Palace in Avignon, played a crucial role in Scholastic discourse alongside royal courts. This volume highlights the institutional contexts and intellectual activities of these venues, featuring contributions from leading scholars.
