Martianus Capella
|
A writer active in Carthage from around 365 to 440. He wrote On the Marriage of Philologia and Mercurius, a book that was widely read in the Latin world in the early Middle Ages. In this allegorical book, the bride's maids explain the Heptagonia. These Heptagonia became the core of medieval scholarship due to the influence of this book and later, Cassiodorus, who made them the basis of monastic education.

365ころ‐440ころ カルタゴで活躍した著述家。中世初期のラテン世界でよく読まれた書物《フィロロギアとメルクリウスの結婚について》を著した。この寓話的な本の中で，花嫁の侍女たちが自由七科について解説する。これら自由七科が中世の学問の中核になるのは，上記の本の影響と，のちのカッシオドルスが七科を修道院教育の基礎にしたことによる。【佐藤 徹】 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第２版について 情報 |
