    Here it is again! This time I'll ask you to read it for Lewis's explanation of the shape of the world and where everything fit into their cosmology.

    This excellent little introduction to medieval philosophy will help you get a background as to how the people of medieval world made sense of their world through reason, and how medieval schoolmen sought to integrate the tools of human reason with the teachings of the Christian religion.
