Hello, everyone: does anyone out there know of any good studies of
Reginald Pecock's thought, specifically directed to his philosophical
or theological writing? I've looked at Wendy Scase's recent essay and
bibliography in Authors of the Middle Ages Vol.III, no.8, and was
a bit surprised to find not very much on the content of the man's thought.
I'm particularly interested in his contention that human reason should
serve as an authority equal to that of the church, as well as in his
translation of scholastic dialectical reasoning about language into the
vernacular. I'm just beginning to read him, and would appreciate some
advice from anyone who has already tested these water. Thanks. Steve Lahey
