The word ‘Scholasticism’ has been derived from the Latin word “scholasticus.” The word means to indulge oneself in learning during leisure time. They encouraged to reason and logic in learning and advocated it in faith, religion, and beliefs. The primary focus of the Scholastics was either to find answers to the question which have never been answered or to resolve the contradictions through dialectical reasoning. Aristotle used the dialectical method to obtain scholastic reasoning. He wanted to merge his logic with faith and theological systems. He defended Christian beliefs and faith by constructing reasonable defense added with logic and reason.
