dc.description.abstractWith emphasis on personal and official epistolary writings, this paper seeks to examine how a fifteenth-century theologian, the prominent chancellor of the University of Paris, Jean Gerson (1363-1429), reflected on the situation of that university, pointing out its ways and redefining or reaffirming its role in the Christian West. Based on letters addressed to authorities, fellow theologians and friends linked to such an environment, this article explores the main points about institutional and political barriers, the weaknesses of the knowledge produced there and, above all, the behavior of teachers and students who, according to the chancellor, prevented the University from fully exercise its function for the benefit of the Christian community. In short, the complaints of a doctor in theology about behaviors worthy of reprimand regarding the relationship of his peers with knowledge and his expectations about the university of his time are scanned.en
