Autor: Lonergan, Bernard J.F. Buch: Verbum: Word and Idea in Aquinas Titel: Verbum: Word and Idea in Aquinas Stichwort: Argument gegen Averroisten; thomistische Psychologie Kurzinhalt: The standard argument against the Averroists was the affirmation 'hic homo intelligit'; grasp the nature of your acts of understanding, and you have the key to the whole of Thomist psychology. Textausschnitt: The standard argument against the Averroists was the affirmation 'hic homo intelligit': deny such a proposition, and since you too are an instance of hic homo, you put yourself out of court as one who understands nothing; but admit it, and you must also admit that each individual has his own private intellectus possibilis by which he understands. |
