While Christian theologians have always been greatly interested in angels, during
the course of the thirteenth century their treatments of angelology became increasingly
motivated by philosophical concerns. Many of the most original and ingenious contributions
of medieval philosophy came to light in the context of angelology, for angelology
provided an ideal context for discussing issues such as the structure of the universe,
the metaphysical texture of creatures, and theories of time, knowledge, freedom, and
linguistics. This volume centers on the period from Bonaventure to Ockham while also
discussing some original positions by earlier thinkers such as Augustine and Anselm
of Canterbury. Its nine thorough studies bring to light some neglected but highly
fascinating aspects of medieval philosophy
