Thematic areas (the example): 1. Suárez's Conception of Universals and its echo in the 17th Century Jesuit School: The theme of two seminars will be Suarez's influence upon three great conceptualists of the Jesuit philosophy of the first half of the 17th century (R. De Arriaga, F. Oviedo and H. de Mendoza). 2. Classical Thomistic Concept of Universals: In two seminars the student will devote a classical Thomistic concept of universals of John from St. Tomas (J. Poinsot), whose Cursus Philosophicus became standard for a number of Thomists during the so-called Third Scholastics (first half of the 20th century). 3. The Scotish Concept of Universals I.: In the first two of four seminars devoted to 17th century philosophical scholasticism, we will focus on the concept of Irish Franciscan J. Punche (Pontius). 4. Scotistic Concept of Universals II: In the second two seminars we present the theory of the Italian Conventual B. Mastria
