Full textCe mémoire situe les textes sur les trois voeux composés par les fondateurs des nouvelles (sarma) écoles comme faisant partie du processus plus large de la formation des écoles durant la "renaissance tibétaine" (950 à 1250). Les textes examinés ont été composés par Atiśa, Gampopa, Drakpa Gyeltsen et Drigung Jikten Gönpo. Afin d'étendre notre compréhension de ces textes négligés, je les examine selon trios perspectives, dont chacune est définie par les objectifs différents que visaient les auteurs. Premièrement, j'explique comment ces texts décrivent et organisent les trois types de voeux (du prātimokṣa, bodhisattva, et tantrique) afin de clarifier les engagements du détenteur des voeux. Deuxièmement, je démontre comment les positions défendues dans ces textes sont reliées au processus d'ordination monastique. Troisièmement, je démontre de quelle façon certains des textes prenaient part à des polémiques publiques afin de promouvoir la supériorité de l'auteur et de son école.

Full textOur purpose is to question the relationship between philosophical and theatrical rationality in Shakespeare's work, and to show how dramatization can contribute to the conception of a true idea. The metaphor of the world as a theater enables one to express a doubt related to one's capacity to knowledge. Since everything in theater is guise, semblance and illusion, one could expect not to be able to reach the reality of things – never getting beyond mendacious appearance. Nevertheless, in Shakespeare's plays there is no plea for skepticism, but rather stage is set for the development of a critical thought. Our argument is to sustain that true discourse requires the work of illusion, since truth cannot be simply unveiled, but needs to be staged and played out to be understood, and that theatrical illusion can be truthful. We intend to analyze the different tools specific to theater, which enables it to tell not only the difficulties inherent in reaching the truth, but also the conditions necessary to do so. Our work refers to three viewpoints, the first being epistemological (what conception of truth can be inferred from Shakespeare's plays?) ; the second historical (in what way does this conception help us understand how a model for the rational representation of truth was founded during the modern age?) ; methodological (how can philosophy approach dramatic texts, and what can be expected from this approach?). We intend to assess in what way theater, as a display, can be used as a model for critical, distanced thought, capable of grasping the appearance of the world as a rational phenomenon

Full textMy PhD dissertation aims at analysing the concept of desire in relation to Giordano Bruno’s philosophy. Despite the relatively marginal place of this issue among secondary bibliography and its not immediately evident presence in Bruno’s works, I think that this kind of research can open apertinent and radical perspective on Bruno’s thought. Far from being a secondary aspect, the desire is at the core of Giordano Bruno’s philosophy and it embodies its immanent rhythm. In relation to the fundamental theme of Bruno’s philosophy – the way in which the finite realises the infinite – the question of desire can disclose to us new perspectives. I have looked at this problem from many perspectives, always attentive to express the systematic character under the great varieties of topicswe can find in the Nolana filosofia. I have proceeded diachronically, privileging a conceptual approach rather than a chronological account of Bruno’s thought. First, I have considered the Lampas triginta statuarum, a late Latin treatise in which the desire appears as the force that leads the tenebræ toexpress the infinity of forms they contain in potentiality. In the cosmological dialogues in Italian, the desire – immanent force that assures planets’ revolutions (and in that way the cycle of seasons andcivilisations) – realises in all the beings the vicissitude that allows it to “be everything and becomeeverything”. The comedy The Candle Bearer shows how the pursuit of a static, obsessional, andunnatural desire causes the loss of the three main characters. We can find the same “civil afflatus” inthe magical treatise De vinculis where the magic-philosopher builds through love (“the most powerfullink”) a republic that, through its citizens, reflects the infinite power of nature. Lastly, we will see how, in The Heroic Frenzies, the cognitive desire that allows the metamorphosis of the hunter Acteon in nature corresponds to the most human way to realise the infinite

Resumo: O objeto desta tese de doutorado sobre Erasmo de Roterdã e a Pedagogia da Sátira é analisado como uma problemática da teoria pedagógica e da história da filosofia. O período abrange o final do século XV e os primeiros decênios do século XVI, os quais correspondem à época do humanismo renascentista que cria as bases do pensamento moderno. A investigação consiste, a partir das intenções e justificativas que Erasmo apresenta em seu Epistolário, no tratamento analítico de sua sátira, a qual se insere no discurso metafórico, com o intuito de evidenciar seu alcance pedagógico. Ou seja, a sátira é como um jogo, como um faz-de-conta, capaz de, mostrando jocosa e construtivamente as verdades, cumprir papel pedagógico transformador. Delimitada ao primeiro tomo do Epistolário de Erasmo, que abrange os anos de 1484 a 1514 e 1523, lido e traduzido diretamente do latim, esta pesquisa tem por objetivo comprovar que, para ele, a sátira, necessariamente vinculada à sua proposta educacional, consiste em um método tão privilegiado de educação a ponto de se poder pensá-Ia como pedagogia. Para isso, indo às fontes e adotando o método demonstrativo, nesta pesquisa exploratória são utilizadas determinadas categorias de análise: paradigmáticas (correção, natureza, desapego, humildade, verdade, sinceridade, adaptação, letras humanas, letras divinas, virtude, piedade, proposta educacional, método, amizade, sodalício, utilidade e moral), lingüísticas (provérbios, diálogo, ironia, elogio, comédia, apologia, diatribe e libelo) e pedagógicas (paciência, moderação, liberdade, mordacidade, riso, construção e pedagogia). O resultado é a constatação de que no primeiro tomo de seu Epistolário ele reafirma, sistematicamente, intenções, argumentações, definições, idéias e expressões de absoluta valorização da linguagem figurada, particularmente da sátira. Isso autoriza o pesquisador a pensar a sátira de Erasmo, e por extensão a do Renascimento, como a proposta de uma nova e necessária pedagogia, a pedagogia da sátira, que supera a antiga pedagogia do castigo e do medo pela pedagogia do incentivo e da liberdade
Abstract: Current doctoral thesis on Erasmus of Rotterdam and the Pedagogy of Satire involves the problematization of the pedagogical theory and the history of Philosophy. The period comprises the final decades of the 15th and the first decades of the 16th century, or rather, the Humanist Period that establishes the bases ofmodem thought. Dealing with Erasmus's intentions and justifications in his Epistolary, current research is an analytic investigation on the satire, studied within the metaphoric discourse, so that its pedagogical implication may be revealed. Satire is rather a type of game and a make-belief which fulfills transformational pedagogical roles through the playful constructiveness of the truth. Research, restricted to the first volume of Erasmus's Epistolary, from 1484 to 1514 and 1523, read and translated from the original Latin version, aims at establishing that, for Erasmus, satire is wholly linked to the educational scheme and is such a highly privileged educational method that it may be rightly defined as a sort of pedagogy. Paradigmatic (correction, nature, disinterestedness, humility, truth, sincerity, adaptation, human writing, divine writing, virtue, piety, educational proposals, method, friendship, solidarity, utility and morality), linguistic (proverbs, dialogue, irony, praise, comedy, apology, preaching and libels) and pedagogical (patience, moderation, freedom, mordacity; laughter, construction and pedagogy) categories of analysis are used in current research by going to the original sources and by employing the demonstrative method. Results show that in his first volume of the Epistolary Erasmus systematically states the intentions, arguments, definitions, ideas and expressions for the absolute valorization of figurative language, especially for satire. Erasmus's satire, and consequently satire in the Renaissance, is the basis for a new and much needed pedagogy. The pedagogy of the satire goes beyond the old pedagogy of punishment and fear which will be thus replaced by the pedagogy of freedom and encouragement

Full textAristotle is usually seen as the first pluralist of sciences. This point was scarcely discussed in the commentries over the centuries. Around 1560 however, Bernardi asserts in his Eversio that the division of theoretical sciences proposed by Aristotle was made by commodity (per commoditatem), avoiding so a division into to many parts on the one side and a too great unity on the other side. This view on the hierarchy of sciences hides an ontology to be analysed in this work. Moreover, this ontology forces us to examine his positions on logic, since he does not accept the Categories as a work belonging to that discipline nor the second intentions. The coherence between his logic and his ontology are then scrutinised. Finally, we review several authors of the XVIth century who discussed his opinions in order to show the turn off Modern philosophy. The conclusion will be that the unity of sciences, classical topos of the XVIIth century, was already present in aristotelianism
Axworthy, Angela. "Le statut des mathématiques en France au XVIe siècle : le cas d'Oronce Fine." Thesis, Tours, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011TOUR2009/document.
Full textThe aim of this study is to determine the contributions of Oronce Fine (1494-1555) to Renaissance philosophy of mathematics. As first Royal lecturer in mathematics, Fine played a major part in the reassertion of the value of mathematical teaching in sixteenth-century France. Thus, his thought concerning mathematics allows to set forth the evolution of the epistemological and institutional status of these sciences within the parisian academic context of the period. Among the questions tackled by Fine in his definition of the status of mathematics, we consider, in a first part, the ontological status of mathematical things, the epistemological status of astronomy, the nature of mathematical demonstrations and principles, as well as the function of the quadrivium in the educative process. In a second part, our analysis of Fine’s conception on mathematics deals with the status of practical mathematics and of the sciences which are subalternated to mathematics, that is optics and geography, concluding with the definition of the profit which may be obtained from learning mathematics

Full textInventio and iudicium in the reasoning of Michel de Montaigne and Francis Bacon A long look at method between Humanism and Renaissance disputes not only scholastic-level knowledge, but also the potential of reason and the human mind. Michel de Montaigne criticises reason as a tool of knowledge par excellence while concurrently seeming to take up writing in the form of his Essais also as method, founded on fragmentation and constant research. Francis Bacon's interpretation of these matters in his works gives rise to certain suggestions which motivate this examination, to the ends of investigating the different results of a shared critique at the fall of the Renaissance and the dawn of modern times. Critique at the beginning of the 1900s, and, in particular, the article Montaigne et Bacon by Pierre Villey, suggested the charming possibility that the relationship between the two authors was to be sought not in the more obvious correspondence between the Essais and the Essays, but rather in the works on method, in the Baconian theory of idols and in inductive reasoning. In order to define a matter with such vague outlines, two elements were identified which immediately allowed for dusting off a tradition which both authors were well familiar with. References to "invention" and "justice" are found in their works, both codified by classic rhetoric, and as a faculty of the human mind, and in method in the European Humanism pedagogic works. The first chapter is thus dedicated to analysing the translation and diffusion of Montaigne's Essais in England at the beginning of the 1600s. John Florio's translation contributed a great deal to the development of my research, since it explains that, at the beginning of the 1600s, English intellects' interest in Montaigne originated from the pedagogic role the Essais played in creating gentlemen.In the second and third chapters, the categories of invention and justice are examined as faculties of the human being, developing within a learning context. This consideration involves the European Humanism tradition, which Montaigne and Bacon make full use of, relocating a child's upbringing in a political horizon, with pedagogy and education becoming the true key to societal reform.Invention and justice are indeed closely connected to the way the mind meets the world and produces its image. This is where the extremely modern idea that the mind cannot return an accurate copy of the world comes from. Rather, it is a "magic mirror" so, for the mind, things are already contaminated by organic, cultural and historical grime. In this context, the faculty of the imagination must have a big part to play for both authors. The fourth chapter is dedicated to the work by Rodolfo Agricola and Pierre de La Ramée, which completely relocates dialectic and rhetoric in the context of justice and the construction of knowledge. Inductive reasoning acquires legitimacy because it is suited to seeking knowledge in a world scarred by the corruptibility of things and by plausibility, where knowledge is no longer about truth and necessity but about the capacity to act in relation to reality and nature. Lastly, the fifth chapter analyses the authors' rejection of classic inductive reasoning. On one hand, it is a process founded on a mind which is already corrupt and has no awareness of its inadequacy, and, on the other, the habit of agreeing with the constancy of things prevents comprehension of natural order. Therefore, Montaigne and Bacon share the conviction that dissimilarity is unavoidable when constantly seeking the same thing, but getting different results.While Bacon is able to construct an adequate image of the world in this process, Montaigne will merely witness the unshakable singularity of everything, right up to the last page of his Essais

Full textMy thesis undertakes a critical reconstruction of the political philosophy of Leo Strauss (1899-1973) on the basis of his early writings, which I contextualize in the political and philosophical frame of the Weimar Republic and the “German-Jewish Renaissance” of the 1920s. My main hypothesis is that his concept of ”political philosophy” emerges from a confrontation with the “theological-political dilemma” that German-Jewish thought faced after the First World War, the radicalization of German Anti-Semitism and the problem of being torn between national and religious Judaism. I argue that in his early writings of the 1920s, Strauss transforms this dilemma into the opposition between Enlightenment and orthodoxy, atheism and theism that he tries to overcome in the form of an “biblical atheism”. In the 1930s, after his “Platonic turn”, Strauss finds another solution to the “dilemma”, now on pre-modern philosophical grounds, through a new interpretation of Maimonides. With the return to this “platonic” Enlightenment, Strauss tries to harmonize anti-Enlightenment and Enlightenment, pre-modern rationalism and the justification of authoritarian theological-political order. My argument ist that this paradoxical project is the core of his philosophical neo-conservatism

This is a text which is a good example of how the philosopher rejects the metaphysical tradition in which the problem of death has always been thought (from the Greek thinkers to Medieval theologians). We show that the originality of this essay lies in the fact of Montaigne in advising us to follow the nature (which, in his thoughts, it confuses with the usual), and thus, it gets away not only from the Christian Dogmatics, but also from the Hellenistic moral teachings.

Full textThis thesis discusses the conditions of possibility for a philosophy of art based on a precise and rigorous analysis of the pictorial artistic production of the Italian Renaissance. After attempting at defining a method, the presuppositions of iconology are studied in detail with a view to establishing what appear to be their limits. On the basis of this analysis, the author deduces the need for a philosophy of art which, rather than just carrying out an erudite analysis of the icon, endeavours to extract the meaning of a work of art on the basis of its sensitive shape. While Plato, Hume and Kant’s thoughts seem to fail in proposing such an approach, Hegel’s teachings dedicated to aesthetics offer an operational analytical framework, thanks to which space, drawing and colour provide the very place out of which sense can come into being.Hence the works of Fra Angelico, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo constitute the artistic material out of which the relevance of the space-drawing-colour triptych, as developed by Hegel, is put to the test. Furthermore, reference is made to the philosophical thoughts on space, light and colour – as expressed by authors like Thomas Aquinas, Marsilio Ficino, Albert the Great, Plotinus, Aristotle and Nicholas of Kues – with a view to proposing a philosophical sense of pictorial works of art, which paradoxically the theories of art provided by these authors do not seem able to deliver. It is the fundamental aim of this thesis to look for the philosophical sense of works of art through their own sensitiveness and not through a theory of the image

Full textThis thesis focuses on the notion of “bonne foy”, described in the sixteenth century as a fundamental moral, political and religious norm. From a first point of view, it refers to the requirement to keep one's word, and is at the centre of a discourse that is formed at the crossroads of law, moral philosophy and literature, whose main sources, privileged exempla and conceptual structure are analyzed in this thesis. Through the study of specific cases, the ai mis to highlight the specific content of the notion in the French context of the sixteenth century, particularly evident in literary works such as Jean de Beaubreuil's Regulus (1582) or Michel du Rit's Le Bon François (1589). A study of this kind, however, shows that the uses of “bonne foy” cannot be reduced to the paradigm of given word alone, where “bonne foy” consists first and foremost in being faithful to a word kept against all odds, according to the ideal of constancy overcoming circumstances. In the corpus we have collected, “bonne foy” consists, on the contrary, in taking account of circumstances and anything that goes beyond the strict letter of the words. This is what a legal study of the notion shows : bona fides first appeared in Roman law, and underwent a decisive theoretical development in the learned law of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, in which it was gradually linked to the paradigm of equity. The notion is based on a certain mistrust of the consequences, contrary to what is good and true, to which an overly literal interpretation of words can lead. This aspect determines the uses of “bonne foy” outside the law, where we can observe this transposition of a moral category into the field of interpretation. This transformation of the requirement of fides that is at work in the notion constitutes the main object of this work, which explores the tension between two requirements that “bonne foy” expresses without them overlapping perfectly: on the one hand, to assert the obligatory force of the words held by men, and on the other, to subordinate the words to the intention that animates them and to the conditions of their enunciation. The “bonne foy” thus tends to be defined within a hermeneutic ethic whose two privileged processes are as follows : the recognition by someone that they were in error, and the correct interpretation of another's words. Basically, the notion is defined as a relationship to knowledge and language. The study of “bonne foy” in the Essais, which brings this work to a close, focuses on Montaigne's singular use of a notion that is closely linked to the gnoseology developed in the work, based on the recognition of ignorance

Having said that, it will not be the case to simply reinsert these authors, central for the understanding of the topic, in the actual swarm of dialectical treatises during the time, but rather to grasp the reflexion concerning the operations of the intellect, that animate them. During the Renaissance, Dialectic and Rhetoric will be brought closer and their cooperation worked in many different ways, the text will thus discuss how the analysis of the language set forth during the time, strongly supported by the Latin of classic authors, will be shifted toward a topic of the intellect, dedicated to multiples forms of reasoning. This 'dialectical' movement was not an uniform one, nevertheless, the works here consulted can be placed within the framework of a growing participation of the theory of knowledge in the discussions about dialectic, understood as the science of sciences

Full text"Words in the World" details the ways that the place of rhetoric and literature in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries changes in response to the transition from natural philosophy to Cartesian mechanism. In so doing, it also offers a constructive challenge to today's environmental literary criticism, challenging environmental literary critics' preoccupation with themes of nature and, by extension, with representational language. Reading authors from Thomas More to Philip Sidney and Ben Jonson through changes in physics, cartography, botany, and zoology, "Words in the World" argues that literature occupies an increasingly separate place from the real world. "Place" in this context refers to spatiotemporal dimensions, taxonomic affiliations, and the relationships between literature and the physical world. George Puttenham's Arte of English Poesie (1589), for instance, limits the way that rhetoric is part of the world to the ways that it can be numbered (meter, rhyme scheme, and so forth); metaphor and other tropes, however, are duplicitous. In contrast, for an earlier era of natural philosophers, tropes were the grammar of the universe. "Words in the World" culminates with Robert Burton's Anatomy of Melancholy (1621/1651), in which the product of literature's split from the physical world is literary melancholy. Turning to today's environmental literary criticism, the dissertation thus historicizes ecocriticism's nostalgic melancholy for the extratextual physical world. Indeed, Early Modern authors' inquiries into the place of literature and the relationships between that place and the physical world in terms of literary forms and structures, suggests the importance of ecoformalism to Early Modern scholarship. In particular, this dissertation argues that Early Modern authors treat literary structures as types of performative language. This dissertation revises the standard histories of Early Modern developments in rhetoric and of the literary text, and it provides new insight into the materiality of literary form.

Full textThe study of Spanish philosophy is traditionally neglected by academic and historiographical European traditions. It is, however, far from any controversy, a philosophical tradition that exists and has made rich contributions to classical European philosophy. The philosophical thought developed in the sixteenth century in Spain, during the Renaissance, is particularly rich and fruitful. Among the various topics that are addressed, I plan to analyze a question that particularly occupies the minds at that time, namely the philosophy of action that treats with originality two major authors of the Spanish Renaissance: Valencian philosopher and humanist Juan Luis Vives (1492-1540) and theologian and jurist Francisco de Vitoria (1486-1546). Considered both as representatives from Christian humanism and second scholasticism, their thought has so far been addressed in this context, and according to well-defined and narrow lines of approach: pedagogy and rhetoric for the first, law for the second. Our approach is to question their work from an original perspective (the thought of human action) and to question at the same time the dialogue or resonances between these two thinkers a priori opposed by academic traditions. In De Disciplinis (1531), then in De anima et vita (1538), Vives systematically creates a theory of human nature from the Aristotelian-Thomist tradition. In this context, Vives considers that human action is based on the investigation of self-knowledge in the Socratic sense of the term. This is the reason, generally speaking, that makes the man a free being in the world but, and this is where his major contribution to the philosophical anthropology of the time lies, he strives to integrate this thought of the man and the determination of action of the soul’s passion that play a central role in his psychology and philosophical anthropology. In these same years, and within the same theological and philosophical tradition, Vitoria in De Beatitudine and in De actibus humanis creates a theory of human action. Through his commentary on Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologiae, Vitoria thinks of human action in the context of the discovery of the New World and in the will to respect and not to neglect the complexity of human nature. This thought thus manages to renew the anthropology from a theological point of view by enriching the humanist tradition contribution in which Vitoria was also formed. I will try to determine how these two philosophers show a common desire to renew the anthropological thought to a better consideration of the human body and complexity to better ensure human action. This is a matter of utmost importance in the context of the Reformation-driven breakdown of the Church and the debate over the question of the man’s justification. My ambition is therefore to reintegrate the philosophy of action developed by Spanish philosophers into the history of ideas tradition that prepares modernity on the moral, legal, psychological and anthropological levels

Entre los diversos temas que se abordan, planeo analizar una pregunta que ocupa particularmente las mentes en ese momento, a saber, la filosofía de la acción que trata con originalidad a dos autores principales del Renacimiento español: el filósofo y humanista valenciano Juan Luis Vives (1492- 1540) y el teólogo y jurista Francisco de Vitoria (1486-1546). Considerados tanto como representantes del humanismo cristiano y de la segunda escolástica, su pensamiento hasta ahora ha sido abordado en este contexto, y de acuerdo con líneas de enfoque bien definidas y estrechas: pedagogía y retórica para el primero, derecho para el segundo. Mi enfoque es cuestionar sus trabajos desde una perspectiva original (el pensamiento de la acción humana) y cuestionar al mismo tiempo el diálogo o las resonancias entre estos dos pensadores a priori opuestos por las tradiciones académicas. En De Disciplinis (1531), luego en De anima et vita (1538), Vives crea sistemáticamente una teoría de la naturaleza humana a partir de la tradición aristotélico-tomista. En este contexto, Vives considera que la acción humana se basa en la investigación del autoconocimiento en el sentido socrático del término. Esta es la razón, en general, que hace del hombre un ser libre en el mundo pero, y aquí es donde radica su mayor contribución a la antropología filosófica de la época, se esfuerza por integrar este pensamiento del hombre y la determinación de la acción, de las pasiones del alma que juegan un papel central en su psicología y antropología filosófica. En estos mismos años, y dentro de la misma tradición teológica y filosófica, Vitoria en De Beatitudine y en De actibus humanis crea una teoría de la acción humana. A través de su comentario de la Summa Theologiae de Tomás de Aquino, Vitoria piensa en la acción humana en el contexto del descubrimiento del Nuevo Mundo y en la voluntad de respetar y no descuidar la complejidad de la naturaleza humana. Este pensamiento logra así renovar la antropología desde un punto de vista teológico al enriquecer la contribución de la tradición humanista en la que también se formó Vitoria. Trataré de determinar cómo estos dos filósofos muestran un deseo común de renovar el pensamiento antropológico a una mejor consideración del cuerpo humano y la complejidad para garantizar mejor la acción humana. Este es un asunto de suma importancia en el contexto del colapso de la Iglesia impulsado por la Reforma y el debate sobre la cuestión de la justificación del hombre. Por lo tanto, mi ambición es reintegrar la filosofía de la acción desarrollada por los filósofos españoles en la tradición de la historia de las ideas que prepara la modernidad en los niveles moral, jurídico, psicológico y antropológico

Full textThe Renaissance was certainly the age of the ingenium. Interpreted as a generative power, this notion involves a thought on the productivity of Nature and expresses a reflection on singularity and difference. Its presence in the artistic practices and discourses is well known. However, its rôle in natural philosophy, medicine and geography has been less studied. This dissertation aims to show that ingenium was used in oder to understand the variety of human beings, the operations related to creativity and the différent qualifies of places on Earth. Hence, the purpose is to present a spiritual geography of the culture of ingenium of the Renaissance
Geneste, Philippe. "Humanisme et Lumière du Christ chez Henri de Lubac." Thesis, Strasbourg, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014STRAK001.
Full textIf the theology at Lubac is a theology of opportunity, its humanism is a converted humanism, converted to the Christ! There is at H. de Lubac a real quest of an authentic humanism which is not against the man, but for the man, what only the faith to the Christ can guarantee. It is the reason why our author envisages the humanism turned to the most human religion, worth knowing the religion of the Embodied Verb. Because this concept of humanism, united with a too big overestimation of the man, quickly overturns into an anthropological drift. In the Christian humanism, it is less the existence of the man than his vocation which is highlighted. On the other hand, there is a connection between the peculiarity of the person and the solidarity of the humanity. The Christian humanism thwarts all the forms of individualism and collectivism by contemplating the Christ under the modes of the density and the unity. The conception of the humanism dresses at Lubac an ontological density and a fertility. If the antique wise person is a separate being because his pondering remains solitary, the saint, in the Christ, works on the definitive metamorphosis of the Universe. Lubac draws up the report according to which the Christ cannot be exceeded because it is in him that everything is carried out. The event Jesus Christ plays a decisive role for the humanity, it is the principle of " Quite there all "
