Guarino da Verona belongs to the philosophical record as a figure whose arguments outlasted the disputes that prompted them.
The record lists Guarino da Verona as Italian humanist.
Guarino da Verona was born at Verona in 1374.
Thought in this period moved between the Islamic world, the Jewish communities and the Latin West, and the same texts were argued over in three traditions.
His academic posts were held at Leonello d'Este, Marquis of Ferrara and University of Ferrara.
The recorded fields of work are humanism, translations from greek and university lecture.
Among his principal works are Musce collaudatio vel explicatio, Regulae and Vita Dionis et comparatio et de Bruto ac Dione iudicium. Philosophy advances by objection: an argument matters if serious people spend years attacking it.
Guarino da Verona died in 1460, aged 86. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
