How did the middle ages philosophy of Scholasticism view life and learning?

A. Because Scholasticism was specifically Catholic, you ought to read it from the Catholic Encyclopedia. I'm atheist, but I trust this encyclopedia to tell me the truth. It's extremely objective.

Q. How does scholasticism differ from education today?
Asked by kt - Wed Sep 3 12:25:25 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Scholasticism was the dominant form of theology and philosophy in the Latin West in the Middle Ages, particularly in the 12th, 13th, and 14th centuries. It was both a method and a system which aimed to reconcile the Christian theology of the Church Fathers with the Greek philosophy of Aristotle and his commentators. Since I never attended a parochial school, I have to say that Scholasticism is completely different from education today because theology and religion are not accepted courses accept in college and parochial schools.

What would be an example of posteriori knowledge?
Q. According to Britannica Concise Encyclopedia: In epistemology, knowledge that is independent of all particular experiences, as opposed to a posteriori (or empirical) knowledge, which derives from experience. The terms have their origins in the medieval Scholastic debate over Aristotelian concepts (see Scholasticism). Immanuel Kant initiated their current usage, pairing the analytic-synthetic distinction with the a priori a posteriori distinction to define his theory of knowledge. Oops! I meant to ask for an example of a priori knowledge!
Asked by Travis - Sun Aug 2 18:07:34 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. a posteriori means "you see it so you believe it". This is just experience-based knowledge, like "if you lube the chain on your bicycle, it runs better".

A. Scholasticism was an approach to study advanced by 12th century scholars such as Peter Abelard and Archbishop of Anslem of Canterbury. Scholasticism originally attempted to reconcile Christian theology with the philosophy of Aristole. To do so, it encouraged critical analysis of written texts and deductive reasoning - which became hallmarks of the movement. It also encouraged the testing of ideas through the process of dialectic. If you're not familiar with that, basically an idea is presented (a thesis) and then its opposite (an antithesis). Through the process of debate, one or the other may prove stronger and thus "win" OR a combination of the two (a synthesis) may emerge. The strength of Scholasticism was the rigorous textual… [cont.]

A. The ancient Greek authors were always available during the time of the Roman republic and empire in the original Greek. In those times, there was no reason to translate them into Latin. Educated Romans read Greek. About the year AD 512 in Rome, however, Boethius realized that his fellow citizens were no longer literate in Greek. So he set out to translate the logical works of Aristotle into Latin. He got as far as the Prior Analytics, plus a commentary on the Prior Analytics by Porphyry. He also translated one dialog, the "Timaeus," by Plato. That was as far as he got. Until the 11th century, that was all that western Europe had.

Forever is just a time too long to describe. All things are relative. Change some factors and even Newtonian physics change. As such everything we know is subject to correction and purely contextual. If XYZ are true than A is most likely correct is the best we can do with science. Without the context of XYZ you are spitting into the wind, sometimes the wind can double or triple that glob before returning it to you :) So I'd revise it be contextual.
