The Casus Obligationis Attributed to William Heytesbury
Original language description
Casus obligationis is a short fourteenth-century collection of five epistemic sophisms, preserved in four fourteenth- and fifteenth-century manuscripts. The text has attracted scholars’ attention due to its attribution to William Heytesbury. The treatise follows the second chapter of Heytesbury’s Regule solvendi sophismata in discussing issues of epistemic logic, but diverges from this source in several interesting ways. The present study present a critical edition of the text, discusses its relation to Regule solvendi sophismata, and analyses some of its basic features, namely the endorsement of the framework of obligationes, the distinction between two basic forms of modal statements (the so-called sensus compositus and sensus divisus), the problem of logical omniscience, and the Bradwardinian theory of sentential meaning as closed under entailment.
