97 THE HISTORY OF EDUCATION were answered in the same systematic manner. The chief textbook for use in the schools was the ' ' Sententiae ' ' (Opinions) of Peter the Lombard (1100-1160), a pupil of Abelard who taught at Paris. In the latter part of the scholastic period the "Summa Theologiae" of Thomas Aquinas was equally popular.
Influence of Scholasticism. The method of scholasti- cism produced minds as keen and subtle as are met in any period of history. The attention of the
...se minds was directed towards abstract and metaphysical ques- tions, not towards the world of man and nature ; hence comparatively little actual progress was made in widen- ing the boundaries of knowledge. But their analytical method showed that there were two sides to every ques- tion ; and, with the revival of nominalism under Occam, the insistence upon experience as a source of truth paved the way for the Renaissance and the development of mod- ern science. Moreover, scholasticism gave a great im- petus to intellectual pursuits, and resulted in the main- tenance of a large class of learned men at a time when the fighter was exalted.
