He did not succeed in covering quite all the fields of academic knowledge he did not write on medicine, and his one theological work was posthumous and brief, though it made up for brevity with its comprehensive plan. But he covered a great deal and had he not been tragically murdered at the peak of his career, would doubtless have covered much more. Ramus was born, almost certainly in 1515, at Cuts in northeast France. He came of an impoverished branch of a noble family originally from Liège in present-day Belgium. He was baptized Pierre de la Ramée, a name which he latinized later as Petrus Ramus (commonly adjusted in English to Peter Ramus) when he moved into the world of learning, where Latin was the ordinary means of communication in the classroom and in published work. He was educated at the University of Paris, where he received his master of arts degree and spent most of his life as teacher in the faculty of arts, and as scholar and writer, and where he was tragically murdered August 26,1572, during the Massacre of St. Bartholomews Day. Current study of the work of Ramus was begun some three decades ago by scholars from the United States.1 It has since been growing steadily there and, more recently, in Europe and elsewhere, and has encouraged facsimile editions, such as this one, which can make Ramus more important works widely available. Recent scholarship has revised earlier interpretations of Ramus as a Renaissance Promethean hero wresting the torch of learning from medieval obscurantists who were trying to blow it out. He has been shown to be a humanist polymath, thoroughly adept, as a humanist should be, in the literary use of Latin, bereft of Erasmus profound wit but a greater orator than Erasmus and thus more properly in the full-blown rhetorical tradition some of his counterparts rated him the greatest Latin orator since Cicero, although most of his oratory concerned academic matters. As a good humanist, Ramus was antischolastic in principle and in his declared program. In actuality, however, he was completely overpowered by a scholastic passion for abstract organization, which in his case meant a supersimplified organization controlled largely by diagrammatic schemata, as explained here below. As a movement, humanism centered largely in curriculum reform, and this was the end to which most of Ramus simplifying energies were ultimately turned. He was known to his own age as an academic enfant terrible, an anti-Aristotelian scholar and teacher and a magnificent lecture hall orator, obsessed with the need little studied except for the Anglo-American milieu. In her fine study, The Art of Memory (Chicago, Ill.: University of Chicago Press, 1966), Frances Yates has shown the international significance of Ramism in the mnemonic tradition which both formed and symptom- ized the pretypographical mind. la Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
