From the Dust Jacket: "D'Ailly (1350-1420), is best known today as the author of the geographical treatise IMAGO MUNDI, which Columbus studied and annotated before embarking on his historic voyage, and as one of the prosecutors of John Hus in Hus' trial for heresy in 1415. D'Ailly was an eminent nominalist theologian and one of the group of ecclesiastical statesmen who engineered the termination of the Great Schism. It is this dual roll that lends particular interest to his political thought, which reflects both his attempt to solve the urgent ecclesiastical-political problems of the times and the theological 'voluntarism' characteristic of the Ockhamist school to which he belonged. D'Ailly was one of the most eminent of the Conciliarists, and to the present volume is appended a complete text of one of his two principal Conciliar tracts, the TRACTATUS DE MATERIA CONCILII GENERALIS, edited in full for the first time.".
