In the Middle ages the term for an antinomy or paradox of the Liar type (‘This sentence is false’ or ‘This sentence is not true’) was ‘ insolubile ’ - an «insoluble». There was a great deal of literature on the topic of such insolubles in the Middle Ages, and that literature has recently begun to be investigated in detail. 1 As a result of this research, it has become clear that the views of Thomas Bradwardine on this topic were especially influential. They are the topic of this paper.
