This paper considers arguments in the Summa aurea of William of Auxerre (circa 1215-1229) concerning the nature of reason in its directive function of human action and the presence of rationality in the universe as a whole. From acritical-exegetic perspective, this study examines the synergy of Hellenistic sources with Roman legal teachings and developments of the Augustinian tradition that William of Auxerre questions calls into question.

The present study examines, on the one hand, Philip the Chancellor's work in the early 13th century on the nature of being as good, in the context of the development of his philosophical method. It deals with his position on the value of philosophical propositions to the understanding of the faith. On the other hand, the study presents Philip's cosmic-anthropological concepts, particularly stressing the contribution of Platonic, Aristotelian and Hellenistic traditions to it.
