Scolastique

Scolastique (or scholasticism) was a medieval intellectual movement that aimed to reconcile Christian faith with classical philosophy, especially that of Aristotle. Thinkers like Thomas Aquinas used rigorous reasoning and systematic methods to explore theological and philosophical questions, seeking to understand religious truths through logical analysis. It emphasized dialectical debate, structured learning, and the integration of faith and reason. Scolastique played a significant role in shaping medieval education and philosophical thought, fostering a disciplined approach to studying divine and natural truths within a Christian framework.
