Jordan and Matt talk with Manfred about his latest book on the reception of Aristotle, especially his ethics and politics in Protestantism. They cover topics like why do some truly think the Aristotelian tradition is forgotten or defeated in Protestant thought? What is the difference between Protestant scholasticism and Protestant Aristotelianism? How did the Protestant reception of Aristotle’s metaphysics differ if at all from the catholic reception? How might we today return to an Aristotelian supraconfessional tradition?
