Funded Activity Summary

Nature-culture continuities in medieval philosophy and theology. While nature and culture tend to be opposed to one another in modern philosophy, in medieval thought there are many continuities between the two domains. This project will provide the first sustained historical study of nature-culture continuities in medieval Latin philosophy and theology, examining the areas of: cognition; language; semiotics; ethics and politics; animality; ecology; metaphysics; and God. The project will fill a significant gap in medieval intellectual history, enhance Australia’s research capacity in the history of philosophy and history of theology, and demonstrate how medieval ideas can inform contemporary debates about humanity’s relationship to the natural world.
