These arguments, the result of increasing specialization in the schools, would continue to play themselves out throughout Abelard’s later career. Abelard’s earliest glosses on dialectic make no allusion to debate about universals, one particular type of vox.
He recognizes vocalist thinking without engaging in heated polemic against their position. He does not present a particularly sophisticated definition of universals beyond suggesting that a species is the material essence shared by different individuals distinguished by accidents, the position that Abelard forced him to modify around 1109. William also composed commentaries on Cicero’s De inventione and the Rhetorica ad Herennium in which he frequently refers to the teaching of grammar and rhetoric in Laon.
