Richard Rufus of Cornwall, Scriptum in Metaphysicam Aristotelis
Hervaeus Natalis on Angelic Cognition of Singulars
One of the most difficult issues for a medieval author is explaining how angels can know the particular things of our world. That they can do so is beyond question, as angels are tasked with taking care for the world. However, how they can do this is a matter of debate.
