Critical Edition and Translation of William of Ockham, Dialogus 3.2

这些项目旨在对奥卡姆的主要政治论文《他的对话》进行批判性编辑和翻译。这部不朽的作品仍然是他庞大作品中的最后一件作品，而这部作品尚未在现代评论版上发表。该项目是约翰·基尔卡伦教授领导并得到英国科学院认可的国际合作的一部分。该项目的科隆基地分配有《对话》第3.2部分的版本。英国学院已确保在Auctores Britannici Medii AEVI系列中出版。第3.2部分起源于奥卡姆斯生命的最后几年，涉及中世纪罗马帝国的宪法。奥卡姆评论了帝国与民族国家的关系，国家与教会的分离，以及皇帝和教皇的角色。他的思想被认为是对现代政治哲学的开创性贡献之一。该版本将首次为未来几代历史学家提供可靠的文本。

The projects aims at the critical edition and translation of Ockham's major political treatise, his Dialogus. This monumental work remains the last item in his vast oeuvre which has not yet been published in a modern critical edition. The project is part of an international cooperation headed by Prof. John Kilcullen and endorsed by the British Academy. The Cologne base of the project is assigned with the edition of part 3.2 of the Dialogus. The British Academy has ensured the publication in the series Auctores Britannici Medii Aevi. Part 3.2 originated in the last years of Ockhams life and deals with the constitution of the medieval Roman Empire. Ockham commented on the relation of the Empire to the Nation States, on the separation of state and church, and on the role of emperor and pope. His thoughts are considered to be among the groundbreaking contributions to modern political philosophy. The edition will make available, for the first time, a reliable text for future generations of historians.
