Marsilius Of Inghen

Marsilius of Inghen was a popular medieval Dutch Scholastic writer who studied under Jean Buridan. He was a professor for some time at Paris, but in 1383 he and Albert of Saxony went to spread the nominalist doctrine at the University of Heidelberg (John Longeway, in Cambridge Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2nd edition, p. 537). His birth year is variously given as 1330 or 1340. In logic, he was an Aristotelian nominalist; in natural philosophy, an empiricist. (Maarten Hoenen, Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2001 http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/marsilius-inghen/) He applied a synthesis of the new 14th-century physics of Buridan, Bradwardine and Oresme in his commentaries on Aristotle. (Longeway, loc. cit.)
