History of European Philosophy in the Middle Ages

In the history of European philosophy in the Middle Ages, Youssef Karam takes us on a profound intellectual journey into one of the most influential periods in the history of the human mind, where scholastic philosophy was born, combining faith and reason, religion and logic. The author skillfully demonstrates how the Carolingian Renaissance, led by Charlemagne, paved the way for the resurgence of the scientific movement, and how schools transformed from institutions linked to the church into independent spaces that explored concrete meanings and real-life experience, paving the way for modern philosophy. Between the intellectual icons who left their mark on that period and the debate between idealism and realism, the book paints a comprehensive cognitive picture that immerses the reader in the roots from which the European Renaissance emerged. It is a work that not only reveals the history of philosophy but also illustrates how the trajectory of Western civilization was shaped.
