Italian original Cite

Also known as: Italian: Bartolomeo da Bruges; Latin: Bartholomaeus de Brugis

BARTOLOMEO di BRUGES. - Philosopher and physician, b. at Bruges ca. 1285, d. probably in 1356. From 1307 to 1309 magister artium at Paris, from 1329 to 1342 physician to Guy of Châtillon, count of Blois; nothing else is known of his life. Philosophical works (all in manuscript): Commentarii in Aristotelem, De anima, Physica, Meteorologica, Oeconomica (often cited by his contemporaries); Quaestiones disputatae; Sophismata. As a philosopher, especially as an interpreter of Aristotle, he keeps to the traditional paths, without bringing in any new ideas. He was more a physician than a philosopher.
