Abstract This article documents how a serial plagiarism case discovered over a decade ago continues to generate negative effects in the downstream research on medieval and early modern philosophy. The ongoing positive citation of the 40 plagiarizing articles and book chapters – including those retracted by their publishers – affects the reliability of later scholarship in several ways. The present state of affairs is the joint result of authors, editors, peer reviewers, and publishers who continue to allow (and in some cases, support) the publication of new works across a variety of genres that contain positive citations to the 40 plagiarizing articles and book chapters. The problem shows no signs of abating; the plagiarizing articles and book chapters continue to acquire positive citations in new publications, including authoritative reference works. The breach of research standards is further shown by the fact that even a non-existent publication by the plagiarist continues to acquire positive citations.

Abstract John Wyclif’s principium biblicum , that is to say, his inception speech as a Master of Theology at Oxford, dating from 1372/1373, has received scant scholarly attention. Discovered and edited in the 1960s by Beryl Smalley, it has long been considered a typical representative of its genre. A closer look at Wyclif’s text in the light of current principia -scholarship, and in particular of Robert Grosseteste’s recently identified inception speech, shows, however, that Wyclif’s principium biblicum is all but traditional. Its far-reaching claims concerning the importance of a thorough philosophical training as a prerequisite for the study of the Bible, as well as for that of theology, make this principium stand out amongst medieval inception speeches.

Abstract This article examines an uncommon materialist argument preserved in late medieval Prague quodlibets by Matthias of Knín (1409) and Prokop of Kladruby (1417). The argument connects the Galenic claim that the human body has the noblest and best-balanced complexion possible with the Alexandrist claim that the human rational soul emerges from such well-balanced matter without any supernatural intervention. Of the various medieval renderings of these claims, John Wyclif’s De compositione hominis is singled out as the most probable source of the argument. Far from attributing plain materialism to Wyclif, the article highlights a semimaterialist position, mentioned in two fifteenth-century De anima commentaries of Prague origin, grafting the immortal spirit postulate onto an Alexandrist-like doctrine of the intellect as educed from the harmoniously complexioned body. Finally, it is argued that this semimaterialist position may not only encapsulate how Bohemian masters read Wyclif, but also be close to Wyclif’s actual anthropological stance.

The late fourteenth-century English Carmelite Richard Lavenham was a prolific author of Latin and vernacular treatises on logic, physics, philosophy, and theology. Among other works pertaining to natural philosophy, he authored the short Tractatus terminorum naturalium, preserved in three complete or almost complete late fourteenth- or early fifteenth-century copies, with the opening passage preserved in three other manuscripts. The text is fundamentally a redaction of the Heytesburian Termini naturales, a brief glossary of technical vocabulary of the natural philosophy and physics of the Oxford Calculators, supplemented by additional textual and pictorial material. As such, Lavenham’s treatise is a specific branch of an influential tradition of school texts that took the form of elementary treatises, additional glosses, quaestio-commentaries, and excerpts.
14世纪晚期的英国加尔默罗修士理查德·拉文纳姆是一位多产的作家，他在逻辑学、物理学、哲学和神学方面撰写了大量拉丁语和白话文论文。在其他有关自然哲学的著作中，他撰写了简短的《自然论丛》(Tractatus terminorum naturalium)，保存在14世纪末或15世纪初的三个完整或几乎完整的副本中，开头的段落保存在另外三个手稿中。文本基本上是对Heytesburian Termini naturales的修订，牛津计算器的自然哲学和物理学的技术词汇的简短词汇表，补充了额外的文本和图片材料。因此，拉文纳姆的论文是一个有影响力的学校文本传统的特定分支，该传统采用了基本论文，附加注释，问题评论和摘录的形式。

It is now standard to interpret Aquinas as recognizing two main types of material objects: substances and artifacts, where substances are those material objects that result from some particular substantial form inhering in prime matter, and artifacts are those material objects that result from some particular accidental form inhering in one or more material substances. There are two problems with this standard interpretation. First, there are passages in which Aquinas states that accidental forms should be understood not as inhering in substances from the outside, but as entering into their composition so as to be included among their metaphysical parts. Second, there are passages in which Aquinas states that it is impossible for any accidental form to be shared by two or more substances. This article considers what implications these two observations might have for how we understand the metaphysical structure of artifacts in Aquinas’s ontology.

According to the doctrine of the Great Year, after a long period of time the same astral configurations reappear and the planets return to their original positions. The end of a world cycle is marked by a natural cataclysm, after which the world is restored to its original state and history repeats itself. This article deals with Albert the Great’s views on the Great Year, focussing on two of his early theological works (the De iv coaequaevis and the Sentences commentary). The evidence here provided offers a comprehensive overview of the variety of contexts and themes which Albert considers to be related to the Great Year. He is fully aware of the many doctrinal implications of the concept of the Great Year. His analysis is deeply embedded in the astronomical discussions on the phenomenon of the precession of the equinoxes. A predominantly scientific approach is evident in the care with which he distinguishes the different types of Great Year. The major contribution of these works to the debate lies in the analysis of the impact of the Great Year on Christian eschatology and, more generally, in the investigation of the relationship between astrology and physics, on the one hand, and eschatology, on the other.
根据大年学说，经过很长一段时间后，同样的星体结构重新出现，行星回到原来的位置。一个世界周期结束的标志是一场自然大灾难，之后世界恢复到原来的状态，历史重演。本文讨论了阿尔伯特大帝对“大年”的看法，重点讨论了他早期的两部神学著作(《De iv coaequaevis》和《句子注释》)。这里提供的证据提供了阿尔伯特认为与伟大的一年有关的各种背景和主题的全面概述。他充分意识到大年概念的许多教义含义。他的分析深深植根于天文学对春分岁差现象的讨论中。在他区分不同类型的“大年”时，一种主要的科学方法是显而易见的。这些著作对这场辩论的主要贡献在于分析大年对基督教末世论的影响，更广泛地说，在于研究占星术和物理学与末世论之间的关系。

The focus of this article is the manner in which Thomas Ebendorfer of Hasselbach, a Viennese theologian lecturing on Book I of the Sentences in 1421, deals with the topic of virtus sermonis and the relation between theology, philosophy, and logic in his Prologue from the autograph MS Wien, Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, 4369 (ff. 7r–8v). By combining a double classification of each science (into acquisita vs. infusa) with a double perspective of their relation (temporal vs. natural), and by making a strong claim for theology’s role in advancing new logical theories, Ebendorfer’s view reflects a progressive awareness of the distinction between theology and philosophy which, in turn, entails very different applications of virtus sermonis in the two sciences. An edition of the Prologue is provided in the Appendix.
本文的重点是哈塞尔巴赫的托马斯·埃本多夫，一位维也纳神学家，1421年在《句子的第一本书》上发表演讲，在他的序言中处理虚拟圣训以及神学、哲学和逻辑之间的关系的方式，署名为MS Wien，Österreichische National bibliothek，4369（ff。7r–8v）。通过将每门科学的双重分类（分为习得与信息学）与它们之间关系的双重视角（时间与自然）相结合，并强烈主张神学在推进新的逻辑理论中的作用，埃本多夫的观点反映了对神学和哲学之间区别的逐渐认识，虚拟圣训在这两门科学中的应用非常不同。序言的版本见附录。
