In the last half of the 15th century, the classic Platonic debate over the merits of rhetoric and philosophy was replayed in the debate between humanists and scholastics over philology and dialectic. The dispute between representatives of the two camps fueled many of the most important intellectual developments of the Renaissance and Reformation.
