Die Philosophischen Werke des Robert Grosseteste, Bischofs von Lincoln
Robert Grosseteste; Ludwig Baur (ed.)
Only partial translations or excerpts exist. This is the first complete English translation.
Ludwig Baur's 1912 edition, 'Die Philosophischen Werke des Robert Grosseteste', is a critical collection of Latin source texts. While many individual treatises contained within this volume have been translated into English by various scholars over the decades (such as 'De Luce' or the 'Hexaëmeron'), the volume itself—as a complete, unified collection of the works Baur selected and edited—has never been translated into English. Therefore, while partial translations exist, no complete translation of this specific German-edited collection exists.
