[4] He lectured at the Cistercian College of St. Bernard in Paris, and rose to the height of his philosophical and theological fame around the year 1345.
[9] Mirecourt responded to this condemnation by writing a second apology to no avail: he was censured in Paris by Pope Clement VI in 1347.
[18] Mirecourt held the view that anything physical or moral is wholly depended on the entirely free will of God.
This stood in rather severe contradistinction to the commonly accepted view of Mirecourt's contemporaries which were centered on the premise of an all-good God.
[23] God possessed the highest degree of perfection on his scale; and all creatures were infinitely distant from him.
Mirecourt rejected the idea of an imperfect intuitive cognition, however, which is a considerable departure from Ockham.
[30] Mirecourt was chiefly influenced by the philosophy of Nicholas of Autrecourt, William Ockham, and to a minimal degree, Gregory of Rimini, and perhaps even Thomas Bradwardine.
