McInerny makes his point that \"Boethius taught what Thomas\u003cbr\u003esays he taught\" through a careful analysis of Aquinas's commentary on the \u003ci\u003eDe trinitate\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDe hebdomadibus of Boethius.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRALPh McineRny was Michael P.

The case is well argued. . . . One must praise the method of the study: the arguments come from the texts of Boethius and Thomas, not the other way around, and the Latin is there to consult. . . . McInerny's study builds to a strong and interesting conclusion.\"--\u003ci\u003eJournal of the History of Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Some of the leading historians of medieval philosophy have tended either to neglect Boethius's influence or to condemn his 'logicism' as an unfortunate element in the development of philosophy in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. McInerny aims at correcting this bias. . . . This book is an important contribution to the history of medieval\u003cbr\u003ephilosophy.\"--\u003ci\u003eSpeculum\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRalph McInerny was Michael P.
