The chapter investigates the advancement and dynamics of the discourse on the will, reviews the puzzles that troubled late medieval masters, and elucidates the genesis of the issues that came under scrutiny in the fourteenth century by outlining how certain doctrinal disagreements triggered robust disputes. However, its major focus lies on the theories of the fourteenth-century philosophers and theologians whose concepts of the will have not attracted much attention yet, mostly because their writings still await critical editions.
