Introduction

The pages here represent the views of so-called Modist writers of the late thirteenth and early fourteenth century. There are a number of these, and considerable interlinking required, hence this page will be under development for some time.

The pages will include work by Siger of Brabant, Boethius of Dacia, Pseudo-Peter of Auvergne, and a modist work attributed to Duns Scotus.
