Pensados na Mente de Deus: os fundamentos do saber em Hugo de São Vítor

Abstract

In this dissertation, we developed a “theory of knowledge”, that of Hugh of Saint Victor. We aim to understand, according to Hugh of Saint Victor, which natural characteristics of the human person trigger their rational conscience and enable them to understand the world around them, which demanded a discussion of the mental assumptions, images and cognitive techniques typical of the medieval world.
