PETRAS ABELARAS<br />

The Medieval Autobiographer Peter Abélard<br />

SUMMARY<br />

The philosopher and theologian Peter Abélard (1079-1142) was the first Medieval thinker who exposed<br />

human subjectivity as material for contemplation and the foundation for knowledge acquisition. According<br />

to M.-D. Chenu, this way Abélard awakened medieval consciousness. He contributed considerably<br />

to metaphysics, logic and ethics, and took an active part in the famous discussion concerning universals,<br />

enriching it by several questions: What is there in things which enables us to give them common names?<br />

If there are no actually existing universals, what do common names designate? If the things signified by<br />

universals cease to exist, would their names still mean the notion we have of these things? etc. He gave<br />

a new basis to ethics by valuing the in<strong>ten</strong>tions more than the results. An in<strong>ten</strong>tion which itself is good<br />

can have as its effect a deed bad in itself, or inversely; but the moral act which a good in<strong>ten</strong>tion dictates<br />

is always a good act, just as the one a bad in<strong>ten</strong>tion dictates is always bad1 . But his most controversial<br />

achievement was bringing dialectics in theology in order to check the dogmas of the Church.<br />
