TAURELLUS, NICOLAUS (1547-1606)

This article appears in Volume V26, Page 455 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SUS-TAV
TAURELLUS, NICOLAUS (1547-1606) ,
German
  philosopher and theologian, was born at Mompelgard. He read theology at
Tubingen
  and
medicine
  at Basel, where he lectured on
physical
  science. He subsequently became professor of
medicine
  at
Altdorf
 , where he died in 1606. He attacked the dominant Aristotelianism of the time, and endeavoured to construct a philosophy which should harmonize faith and knowledge, and
bridge
  over the chasm made by the first Renaissance writers who followed Pomponazzi.
Scholasticism
  he condemned on account of its unquestioning submission to
Aristotle
 . Taurellus maintained the necessity of going back to Christianity itself, as at once the superstructure and the
justification
  of philosophy.
His
chief
  works were Philosophiae Triumphus (1573) ; Synopsis Metaphysicae Aristotelis (1596); De Rerum Aeternitate (1604); and a treatise written in criticism of Caesalpinus entitled Caesae Alpes (1597). See Schmid-Schwarzenburg, Nicolaus Taurellus (186o and 1864).
