ISBN: 9780197265147 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) Since the publication of the edition of John Blund's Tractatus de anima by the British Academy in 1970 there has been widespread acceptance of the importance of this text for the history of thought.

The text was probably composed at Paris, before 1204.

When we perceive that only others are imperfect, we participate in the form of Calvinist humor preferred by William Bradford...
