Heymeric de Campo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heymeric de Campo[1] (13951460) was a Dutch theologian and scholastic philosopher. He was a prominent Albertist[2][3], and forerunner of Nicholas of Cusa. He studied at the University of Paris, and taught at Cologne (where Nicholas studied under him[4]), and Louvain[5].

His Tractatus Problematicus began a series of polemical exchanges between the Albertists and the Thomists. The first part deals with universals, following closely John de Nova Domo, Heymeric's teacher. A belated reply was made on behalf of the Thomists by Gerard de Monte[6].[7].

He wrote a commentary on the Apocalypse[8].
