skolastikoita
Skolastikoita refers to individuals who practiced scholasticism, a philosophical and theological method that dominated European universities from roughly the 11th to the 17th century. This method was characterized by rigorous analytical reasoning, argumentation, and dialectical debate, often employing the principles of Aristotelian logic. Skolastikoita sought to reconcile faith and reason, particularly the doctrines of the Christian Church with the philosophical inquiries of classical antiquity, most notably those of Aristotle.
The core of scholastic methodology involved the close examination of texts, often through the process of disputation.
