Heymeric de Campo

Heymeric de Campo[1] (1395–1460) was a Dutch theologian and scholastic philosopher. He was a prominent Albertist,[2][3] and forerunner of Nicholas of Cusa. He studied at the University of Paris, and taught at Cologne (where Nicholas studied under him[4]), and Leuven.[5]

His Tractatus Problematicus began a series of polemical exchanges between the Albertists and the Thomists. The first part deals with universals, following closely John de Nova Domo, Heymeric's teacher. A belated reply was made on behalf of the Thomists by Gerard de Monte.[6][7]

He wrote a commentary on the Apocalypse.[8]
