Albertus Magnus
Albertus Magnus, also known as Saint Albert the Great, was a German Dominican friar, philosopher, and theologian born around 1200. He is renowned for his comprehensive works on natural philosophy, metaphysics, and ethics, which sought to harmonize Aristotelian philosophy with Christian doctrine. His teachings greatly influenced his student, Thomas Aquinas, and he was later canonized as a saint and declared a Doctor of the Church. Albertus was instrumental in the establishment of the natural sciences as a legitimate field of study in the medieval university system.
