1285 AD to 1349 AD William of Ockham's Logical Transformations William of Ockham (also known as William of Occam) was born in 1285 in Surrey, England, and lived until sometime around 1349. Ockham (who entered the Franciscan order and studied and taught at the University of Oxford from 1309 to 1319) was known as Doctor Invincibilis (from the Latin, meaning "unconquerable doctor") and Venerabilis Inceptor (meaning "worthy initiator"). a Ockham was a philosopher and Scholastic theologian, and also won fame as a logician. During the course of his logical investigations, Ockham discovered the foundations for what were to become known as DeMorgan Transformations , which were described by Augustus DeMorgan some 500 years later. To celebrate Ockham's position in history, the OCCAM computer programming language was named in his honor.

Radio National with Robyn Williams on Sunday 16/04/00 Ockham's Razor Summary: Physicist Anthony Garrett explains the meaning of Ockham's Razor. Transcript: Robyn Williams: Is this the last year of the millennium, or the first? Well, whatever you think about that, there is one issue even more fractious from your letters to the Science Unit, and that’s the spelling of Ockham’s Razor: ‘ck’ or ‘cc’. You’d think the fate of the world depends upon it. As does the beginning of the millennium. Well today we hear from someone who’s keen to settle this major problem. Anthony Garrett, who’s been to see William of Ockham and finds him in very good form. Anton. Anthony Garrett: The village of Ockham is about 25 miles south-west of central London, in England. It is set off the main road from London to Portsmouth, the naval town on the south coast, and nowadays the intersection of this road and the London orbital motorway lies in Ockham Wood. In this small village, seven centuries ago, a boy named William was brought up. As William of Ockham, he became a famous theologian, and today his name is known worldwide for the principle of logic called Ockham’s Razor, which states, broadly, that you should prefer the simplest explanation to fit the facts. He is commemorated in his own village by a window in the parish church. I will tell William’s story and the story of his razor principle, which has recently found expression in my own field, probability theory. The ironies continue. The idea is most famous from a Latin aphorism, ‘Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem’, broadly, ideas should not proliferate unnecessarily. When most scholars were taught Latin, until just 30 or 40 years ago, this was a commonplace phrase. Although it was generally assumed to have been written by William, it was in fact a summary from half way between his time and ours, by an Irish scholar, John Ponce. The idea was finally given the name ‘Ockham’s Razor’ as recently as the 19th century, by William Hamilton, changing the use of ‘razor’ from William’s mind to the principle itself, presumably because it cuts away unnecessary complication.

Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies 1999. x, 590. $85.00 Armand Maurer's new book on Ockham's philosophy is the fruit of more than four decades of work, which wins through to an irenic and much more accurate reading of Ockham than those of the author's eminent predecessors at pims, Etienne Gilson and Anton Pegis. Maurer wishes to strike the pose neither of the neo-Thomist apologist nor of the Ockhamist-devotee, but rather that of a fascinated interpreter seeking to elucidate the views of a brilliant but controversial Franciscan philosopher and theologian. Like all of Gaul, Maurer's book is divided into three parts. After laying out what he takes to be Ockham's fundamental principles about logic and reality, philosophy and theology in part 1, Maurer continues in part 2 with God (the provability of God's existence, the conceivability of the divine essence, and the divine attributes with special attention to intellect, will, and power) and proceeds in part 3 to creatures (the activity of creation, the angels, the features of the universe studied by physics, and finally the human person). Mostly, Maurer restricts his attention to what he takes to be the

Early life Little is known of Ockham’s childhood. It seems that he was still a youngster when he entered the Franciscan order. At that time a central issue of concern in the order and a main topic of debate in the church was the interpretation of the rule of life composed by St. Francis of Assisi concerning the strictness of the poverty that should be practiced within the order. Ockham’s early schooling in a Franciscan convent concentrated on the study of logic; throughout his career, his interest in logic never waned, because he regarded the science of terms as fundamental and indispensable for practicing all the sciences of things, including God, the world, and ecclesiastical or civil institutions; in all his disputes logic was destined to serve as his chief weapon against adversaries.

He worked as a Franciscan theologian and scholar, teaching at Oxford until his views came under question by the papal court of Avignon in 1324. There, he met Michael of Cesena, who was also under papal charges, and together they began to review the papal constitutions on apostolic poverty. Through that study, they finally agreed that Pope John XXII (r. 1316-1334) had fallen into heresy. In 1328, Ockham and Cesena fled to the protection of Emperor Louis IV of Bavaria, the political opponent of the pope in Italy and Germany. In the Franciscan convent in Munich, Ockham wrote mostly political treatises for the last two decades of his life, mainly aimed at John XXII and his successors. Ockham died in April 1347.

A B C D ... Z Societas Christiana Encyclopedia William of Ockham (1290-1350) William of Ockham is often known (at least by name) by his most famous intellectual tool, "Ockham's Razor". This principle states, basically, that when analyzing the world one should avoid "multiplying entities unnecessarily". The meaning of this is set within the centuries-old debate amongst Christian intellectuals regarding Realism and Nominalism , a set of profound questions about the relationship of human language to reality. By Ockham's day, the Realist school had progressed to such an extreme point that some of its adherents were proclaiming theories which strongly implied that God himself was metaphysically bound by realities outside of himself and could not operate out of accord with those norms. This implication, in turn, derived from the basic Realist notion that the world of changing space and time things wasand had to beundergirded by a vast metaphysical hierarchy of unchanging things, all interconnected and rationally understandable by the human mind. But Ockham is also known to students of the Middle Ages for his sweeping and powerful attack upon the Papal Monarchy , a theory of the government of Christian society which held that all powers in society, both spiritual and temporal, descended from the Pope of Rome, who , as the "Vicar of Christ", was the supreme power on earth under God. Ockham wrote a number of political treatises exposing what he believed to be the tyrannical foundations and implications of this theory of government, and helped to increase the already existing trend in Medieval thinking toward constitutionalist forms of government. Ockham's controversy with the Papal Monarchy was spurred by a dispute that broke out between the Papacy and the "Spiritual Franciscans" regarding the pope's ability to infallibly define doctrine. Ockham was joined in this battle by a more radical theologian than he
