Las mutaciones de la acedia. De la Patrística a la Edad Media (original) (raw)

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to show the conceptual shift of the term sloth from its technical formulation by the Desert Fathers – who understand it as a logismos– to its strictly moral defi nition by the medieval authors – who regard it as a vice or a sin. The works that will be particularly taken into account are: the works of Evagrius Ponticus in which he discusses the subject and Summa de vitiis by the medieval author William Peraldus.
