Synopsis
La période universitaire du Moyen Ã,ge se caractérise par un véritable renouveau des formes de production de la pensée : nouvelles sources, nouvelle organisation du savoir, nouvelles théories de l'e(tm)exégèse mais également nouvelles pratiques interprétatives. L'e(tm)ambition de ce livre est double : mettre au jour de manière unitaire la pratique herméneutique de l'e(tm)ensemble de l'e(tm)Å"uvre de Thomas d'e(tm)Aquin, et proposer par ce biais une méthodologie pour optimiser l'e(tm)étude de cette pratique chez d'e(tm)autres auteurs de la même époque. Ãe cet effet, l'e(tm)ouvrage propose une analyse systématique de la locution « intentio auctoris » à partir d'e(tm)un corpus de près de sept cent unités textuelles. La portée interprétative de ce syntagme est ici à la fois définie et mise à l'e(tm)épreuve en vue d'e(tm)en faire un véritable outil pour les études herméneutiques. L'e(tm)esquisse lexicale de cette locution, le décodage des critères de lecture mis en place par Thomas d'e(tm)Aquin et la détermination du caractère juste d'e(tm)un texte seront les étapes clé de ce parcours.

These low-cost tools are suitable for use in large training institutions or small workshops and are designed to enable carpenters and joiners to practise their trade without the need for expensive factory-made tools. This revised second edition includes additional repair techniques as well as an appendix describing modifications, such as using a plywood sole plate on the plough plane or attaching a knob to the jack plane, and new designs, including a combination gauge, which have been devised in Zimbabwe and approved by the original author. An invaluable addition to any workshop.
