Henry of Ghent

Henry of Ghent, who taught initially in the Faculty of Arts in Paris before 1276 and subsequently in the Faculty of Theology in Paris from 1276 until his death in 1293, was an important and influential thinker. His two major works, namely his fifteen Quodlibeta and his Quaestiones Ordinariae (Summa), along with his previously unedited works, are currently being edited in the series Henrici de Gandavo Opera omnia by the DeWulf-Mansion Center (Dr. Prof. Carlos Steel, Director) of the Higher Institute of Philosophy at the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium. Launched in the 1970s by Dr. Raymond Macken, who served as the first general coordinator, the series is now coordinated by Prof. Gordon A. Wilson of the University of North Carolina at Asheville.
