Abstract:

AbstractIn book 15 of his Platonic Theology on the Immortality of the Soul, Marsilio Ficino names Averroes and the Averroists as his opponents, though he does not say which particular Averroists he has in mind. The key position that Ficino attributes to Averroes—that the Intellect is not the substantial form of the body—is not one that Averroes holds explicitly, though he does claim explicitly that the Intellect is not a body or a power in a body. Ficino's account of what Averroes said about the soul's immortality comes not from texts written by Averroes but from arguments made against Averroes by Thomas Aquinas in the Summa contra gentiles.

Abstract:

AbstractCan the persistence of a human being's soul at death and prior to the bodily resurrection be sufficient to guarantee that the resurrected human being is numerically identical to the human being who died? According to Thomas Aquinas, it can. Yet, given that Aquinas holds that the human being is identical to the composite of soul and body and ceases to exist at death, it's difficult to see how he can maintain this view. In this paper, I address Aquinas's response to this objection (Summa Contra Gentiles, IV.80–81). After making a crucial clarification concerning the nature of the non-repeatability principle on which the objection relies, I argue that the contemporary notion of immanent causal relations provides us with a way of understanding Aquinas's defence that renders it both highly interesting and philosophically plausible.

Abstract:

This article attempts to clarify the thesis by St. Thomas Aquinas, according to which it is possible to prove that the existence of God can be demonstrated. On the basis of the analyses in Summa Theologica I, q.2 and Summa contra gentiles I (I-XV), there is an attempt to understand the meaning and relevance of this thesis, its implications and its philosophical and theological significance. Thomas Aquinas’ analyses underline the importance of distinguishing between a knowledge about the existence of God and one regarding his essence, while highlighting in each case a set of difficulties and lack of knowledge factors. In a context where the idea of confusion plays a central role, Thomas Aquinas tries to show that: a) no matter how confused knowledge about God is and no matter how large the disproportion between the human and divine perspectives, there is an ineradicable notitia Dei, and b) this notice is linked at the same time to the inability to know God’s essenceand the ability to demonstrate His existenceby means of certain effects and traces of His. This all leads to the peculiar demonstration of the existence of a Deus absconditus. It is precisely the discovery of this God who manifests himself and at the same time hides himself that makes it possible to document the pos-sibility of demonstrating that God exists and that constitutes the foundations on which every and any demonstration of the existence of God rests.

Abstract:

Перевод «Суммы против язычников» Фомы Аквинского, сделанный в XIV в. Димитрием Кидонисом, оказал большое влияние на поздне- и поствизантийское богословие. Глава 61 «О Евхаристии» 4-й книги была использована Георгием (Геннадием) Схоларием при составлении гомилии о Евхаристии - одного из источников решений антикальвинистских православных поместных Соборов XVII в. в отношении богословия Евхаристии. Глава публикуется по рукописям Vaticanus gr. 616 (автограф Кидониса XIV в.) и Taurinensis 23 (C-2-16) (рукопись XV в., принадлежавшая Схоларию). В предисловии содержатся, в частности, наблюдения над тем, какие греческие соответствия выбрал Д. Кидонис для перевода латинских терминов. Summa contra gentiles by Thomas Aquinas was translated in the XIV c. by Demetrios Kydones (1324/5-1397). This translation had a great impact on the Late Byzantine and post-Byzantine theology. Chapter 61 «On the Eucharist», book four of Summa was used by George Gennadios II Scholarios (ca. 1400 - paulo post 1472) in compiling a homily on the Eucharist, which happened to be one of the sources of the decrees of the anti-Calvinist Orthodox councils of the 17th century. We publish the chapter from Vaticanus gr. 616 (XIV c. autograph of Kydones) and Taurinensis 23 (C-2-16) (15th century manuscript, possessed by Scholarios). The apparatus contains the material that was affected by this chapter in the later Orthodox doctrine concerning the Holy Eucharist. In the preface we made some observations on Kydones choice of Greek translations of Latin terms.

Abstract:

The Homily On the mystical body of our Lord Jesus Christ by George Gennadios II — Scholarios (ca. 1400 — paulo post 1472) was the first original Orthodox theological text to use the word μετουσίωσις (transubstantiatio) as an ex professo Eucharistic term and to adopt the doctrine associated with it. In this paper I propose a new reading of the fragment, in which Scholarios writes that God communicates with the faithful in the Eucharist by substance (κατ’ οὐσίαν). I argue that this fragment was a paraphrase of the third paragraph of chapter 61, book four of Thomas Aquinas’ Summa contra gentiles and should not be interpreted in the context of Palamite theology as has been proposed hitherto. I find support for my case in the manuscript Taurinensis XXIII (C-II-16), a compilation encouraged by Scholarios in 1432 and which contained the translation of the Summa contra gentiles by Demetrios Kydones. In addition, I outline the post Scholarium history of the expression κατ’οὐσίαν (secundum substantiam), which played a key role for the later development of the Eucharistic doctrine of the Orthodox Church in the post-Byzantine period.

Abstract:

Holiness is studied from the lens of Biblical Spirituality. Situated in the Divine-Huma relational process, the movement from being un-holy to holy; from being unclean to Divine Purity is given close attention. God as the רק קדוש, draws his people into Himself through purification and in intimacy with Him. The human reality responds with respect and reverence not only to God but to his people as well. However, God has a special preference for the poor and helpless for the clothes them with Himself like a soldier wears his armor. Through a spiritual reading of Exodus 3 and other related Scriptural narratives, these understanding of holiness is surfaced specifically, in the lived experience of Holiness, its nearness in day-to-day life.

Abstract:

Despite being well-studied with respect to his philosophical and theological production, there is still not a robust scholarship dealing, from a linguistic viewpoint, with the writings of Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274). This dissertation aims at establishing this new line of research by proposing a case-study of syntax-based analysis of the lemmas principium and causa, which are relevant for the Thomistic language of causality. The case-study, conducted by means of the PML Tree Queries language, is based on the annotation of a corpus of sentences corresponding to the first two books of the Summa Contra Gentiles, which are part of the Index Thomisticus Treebank Project (IT-TB), developed in continuity with the Index Thomisticus (Index) created last century by Roberto Busa SJ. Drawn up in the context of Busa’s theory regarding the existence of “two philosophies” in the mind of a philosopher, the fundamental aim of the research is to cast light on Aquinas' mind according with a threefold structure: a) investigating the connection between what we already know about the meaning of these lemmas and their syntax-semantic relation with the verbal heads to which they are related as syntactic arguments in accordance with the linguistic framework (the Prague Dependency Guidelines and Harm Pinkster's categories) adopted by the IT-TB; b) disclosing more refined meanings of the lemmas in the context of their relation with the same verbal heads, and c) analyzing the implications of the theory of valency for explaining the meaning of the lemmas themselves. In continuity with Busa's wish for a syntactic study of Aquinas' texts, the dissertation aims to contribute also to two other fields of research: a) Computational/Corpus linguistics for Latin, which is currently attracting the interest of an increasing number of scholars, and b) the general development of the debate in digital humanities, by proposing a language-based approach to informatics along with the concept of linguistic annotation as language-causative activity.
