Abstract
The constellation language-logic in medieval philosophy (2): Duns Scotus to De Rivo. This second in a series of two articles continues the attempt to provide an in-depth overview of some of the most prominent – and some of the most underpublished - medieval thinkers’ stances on the constellation of language and logic, thus as a combined and condensed problem in western philosophy between the 5th and 15th centuries. The two articles form part of a rehabilitating series of modern-critical articles on understated and marginalised themes, texts and figures in medieval philosophy. The positions of the well-known philosophers that are covered in the two articles, St Augustine, Peter Abelard, St Thomas Aquinas, John Duns Scotus and William of Ockham, are juxtaposed with some less familiar philosophical positions, amongst others those of Boethius, Peter of Spain, John Wyclif and Peter de Rivo.

Johannes Duns Skotus en Hendrik van Gent was die eerste skolastici uit die laat 13de en vroeg 14de eeue om grondig hierop te reageer
Die Franciskaan Duns Skotus3 (1266–1308 ), gebore te Duns naby Berwick-Tweed in Skotland en oorlede op die jong ouderdom van 42 te Keulen, staan in die Middeleeuse filosofie met goeie rede bekend as Doctor Subtilis, ‘die subtiele doktor’: sy werk in Franciskaanse kloosters en die teologiese fakulteite te Cambridge, Oxford, Parys en Keulen getuig van ‘n ideehistoriese aandag aan die fynste detail, intensiewe nuanses in die hantering van die intellektuele voorgeskiedenis en ’n voorkeur aan subtiele onderklemtoon in skolastiese polemieke
