The subject of this volume is the place of mathematics and science in the thought of the medieval West, notably during the 10th-14th centuries. The "Quadrivium", part of the educational system of the Middle Ages, is discussed in the opening studies. These show how its original structure, and the division into the arts of arithmetic, music, geometry and astronomy, was reshaped, a process stimulated by the discovery of Arabic science and a new emphasis on the distinction between theoretical and practical learning. This theme, in the form of the relationship between theory and practice, is taken up again in the final articles. A further group of studies deals specifically with the development of arithmetic, looking in particular at the evolution and the use of numerals.
