This paper is a critical examination of David Piché’s book Épistémologie et psychologie de la foi dans la pensée scolastique (1250–1350). This book deals with medieval doctrines of religious faith, examined from an epistemological and psychological point of view, a topic on which several studies have been published recently. Piché endeavors to focus on an in-depth philosophical examination of faith, taken as a “disposition to firmly believe a number of statements pertaining to divine realities.” He focuses his attention on the epistemology of faith. The book partly covers texts that have been examined in detail in recent studies, partly also neglected texts, mainly Richard of Middleton’s and Durandus of St. Pourçain’s. |
