Description
Summary:Franciscan contributions to the late medieval debate on the immortality of the soul were particularly significant. John Peckham was among the thinkers who argued most strongly for the possibility of proving the immortality of the soul. His disciple Roger Marston takes up the arguments in large passages of his De Anima, which nevertheless also presents an original element: invective against theologi philosophantes, who, while not philosophers, use metaphysics clumsily for their own reflection. In this way they undermine proper theological reflection. Marston chooses simplicity against fallacious speculative contortions. What emerges is a methodological concern, as well as a clear theological stance, with profound spiritual implications. Indeed, these problems are not addressed for the purpose of mere erudition, but in the service of salvation.
Las aportaciones franciscanas al debate tardomedieval sobre la inmortali dad del alma fueron especialmente significativas. John Peckham fue uno de los pen sadores que más defendió la posibilidad de demostrar la inmortalidad del alma. Su discípulo Roger Marston retoma sus argumentos en amplios pasajes de su De .Anima, que sin embargo presenta también un elemento original: la invectiva contra los theo logi philosophantes, que, sin ser filósofos, utilizan torpemente la metafísica para su propia reflexión. Al hacerlo, socavan la reflexión teológica adecuada. Marston opta por la sencillez frente a las falaces contorsiones especulativas. Lo que surge es una preocupación metodológica, así como una clara postura teológica con profundas im plicaciones espirituales. Estos problemas no se abordan por mera erudición, sino en perspectiva salvífica.
