Philosophy seated between the seven liberal arts – Picture from the Hortus deliciarum of Herrad von Landsberg (12th century) 中世紀哲學(Medieval Philosophy)是指中世紀的哲學相關發展,時間大約從5世紀西羅馬帝國滅亡至14世紀文藝復興時代開始為止。中世紀哲學從8世紀時被巴格達視為獨立哲學議題,法國查理大帝時代也相當重視哲學[1]。
早期的基督教思想,特别是在爱国时期,倾向于直觉和神秘,不那么依赖理性和逻辑论证。它还强调柏拉图的神秘主义,而较少强调亚里士多德的系统思想。在此期间,西方尚未了解亚里士多德的作品。学者们只依靠波爱修斯将亚里士多德的作品译成拉丁语,並解释逻辑的著作,以及《导论》對亞里士多德注釋的拉丁语翻译。
