Seminar at Milan on Aquinas's Commentary on the Sentences
Wednesday, 25 March 2009 00:00
This week I was invited to give a seminar at the Dept. of Philosophy at the Università del Sacro Cuore at Milan (Italy).  My talk was on "A Medieval Case of Complex Intertextuality: Aquinas's Commentary on the Sentences of Peter Lombard", and went quite well, with a lively and interesting discussion afterwards on the philosophical and linguistic implications of the topics discussed.  The current rough draft is available online, and I will be submitting the finalized version of the article for publication within a week.
