Vivarium has twice been awarded the highest ranking given by the European Science Foundation for Philosophy journals. In the 2011 European Reference Index for the Humanities (ERIH) the journal received the ranking, INT1: "given to international publications with high visibility and influence among researchers in the various research domains in different countries, regularly cited all over the world". It was the only journal in the special field of medieval philosophy to be given such an award.
Paul J. J. M. Bakker is Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Philosophy at Radboud University, Nijmegen (The Netherlands). His research focuses on themes related to the philosophy of mind, such as the relations among soul, mind, and body; the soul’s powers or faculties; knowledge and perception; the rise of psychology as an independent scientific discipline. He works on commentaries on Aristotle’s On the Soul from the late thirteenth to the late sixteenth century, and has been involved in a series of editorial projects, including works of John Buridan.
Christina Thomsen Thörnqvist is Professor of Latin at the Södertörn University (Sweden). She specializes on the Latin reception of Aristotelian syllogistic theory. She has published critical editions of Boethius’ monographs on the categorical syllogism and of “Anonymus Aurelianensis III”, the earliest known Latin commentary on Aristotle’s Prior Analytics. More recently, she has published also on the medieval reception of Aristotle’s theories on sleep and dreams.

Vivarium (VIV) is an international journal dedicated to the history of philosophy and intellectual life from the early Middle Ages to the early modern era. It is widely recognized as an unrivalled resource for the history of logic, semantics, epistemology, and metaphysics. It welcomes articles on medieval, Renaissance and early-modern thinkers, their ideas, arguments, and writings, as well as the institutional and intellectual life of this period.

Editions of texts as brief appendices to the main articles may be added. Articles on early-modern philosophy are welcome if they link it with the medieval and Renaissance traditions. Articles on Arabic and Jewish thought are welcome if there is a clear connection with the Latin tradition. Vivarium also publishes regularly special issues devoted to a particular theme or philosopher.
