Grosseteste, Robert (1175–1253), bishop of Lincoln and first chancellor of Oxford University. He was the author of translations from the Greek, including
Aristotle's Ethics and the works of Pseudo-Dionysius (see
Dionysius the Areopagite). He was a major figure in the development of the Augustinian philosophical tradition, and he was largely responsible for the Oxford emphasis on the development of the natural sciences; it is likely that he passed on to his pupil R.
Bacon his knowledge of and interest in experimental science. In his work
De Luce he identifies a form of corporaneity as the most important of forms and makes the individual the essence of the form.
