Abstract
ROIG, Vicente Llamas. Octahedron τ. Two paths of medieval ontology. Scripta Mediaevalia [online]. 2024, vol.17, n.1, pp.93-136. Epub June 12, 2024. ISSN 1851-8753. http://dx.doi.org/10.48162/rev.35.038.
Eight philosophical theses, contrasted in diverse ideas (from Alexander of Hales to Duns Scotus, from Roger Marston or Matthew D'Acquasparta to William of Ockham), shape an octahedral altarpiece that points to the property of a Franciscan school of thought in the Middle Ages against voices reluctant to acknowledge that school status. The essay culminates in an original proposal of differentiating keys for two ontological models representative of the intellectualist and voluntarist lines linked to the dominant congregations in that period (Dominican and Franciscan currents): analogical and univocist patterns that constitute the finite entity upon divergent basal formulae (secundum assimilationem / secundum disiunctionem). Two very disparate conceptions of metaphysics by inversion of the relative priority of principles in the axiom of act-potency conjunction in finitude.
