To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I mention him especially because of his relation to the subject of this chapter. John Scotus Erigena 77 Looking back in this manner, we see the Early Greeks, Plato and Aristotle, the Stoics and Epicureans ; and on the threshold of the Middle Ages there rises John Scotus Erigena, offering a system of philosophy which contains much that has been claimed as original by the great thinkers who followed him. It would be inaccurate to associate John Scotus with Scholastic Philosophy. The Schoolmen wou...ld, and will, have nothing to do with him. In some respects he bears a resemblance to a Schoolman in his method, in the origin of his ideas, in the intellectual company he kept ; that is all. We cannot say that he founded Scholastic Philosophy. His was an original and amazing intellect which set men thinking ; and he introduced many to Aristotle, who, as Pater says, was the " first of the Schoolmen. " A Schoolman could be enthusiastic about his originality without being enthusiastic about his philosophical heresy.
