This text traces the Latin scholastics' attempt to deal with two essentially incompatible notions of the human soul: the scientific view of Aristotle which considers it to be a form; and the Augustinian view of the soul as a substance in its own right. It traces the growing disarray of Latin notions of the soul, the growth of the monopsychism controversy and the solutions of Bonaventure and Aquinas through the variety of responses to Aquinas's "De unitate intellectus". Among its conclusions are that the traditional dualism diminished with time, that there was little agreement among the "heterodox Aristotelians" and that, with two exceptions, no one in the 13th century taught the present position of the Catholic church, namely that the rational soul is infused at conception.

Written in the 13th century, Robert Grosseteste's De Decem Mandatis draws on a variety of scriptural sources to present, in simple, straightforward language, guidance to pastors faced with the everyday problems of imparting moral instruction to their congregations.

Presents an account of Western European thought from the Patristic age to the mid-14th century. The author aims to keep his reader close to the sense of the texts, which he translates or summarizes in his exposition. He includes key matters which are generally omitted in broad treatments, such as the hexameral tradition (ancient and medieval), the scientific tradition, 12th-century treatises on nature and cosmology, discussions on the eternity of the world, and the thought of Robert Grosseteste. Throughout, Dales stresses the diversity and vigour of medieval thought, qualities which he illustrates from Latin and medieval poetry and literature of various kinds, as well as from philosophical and theological texts.
