Con un decreto del 1 aprile 1272, la Facoltà delle Arti dell’Università di Parigi imponeva ai propri membri di non disputare o determinare questioni di natura teologica e precisava che, qualora essi si fossero imbattuti in passaggi, testi o argomentazioni in contrasto con le verità di fede, li ritenessero assolutamente falsi. L’indagine circa il rapporto tra sostanza e accidente, argomento di natura filosofica, non riguarderebbe direttamente la fede, ma poiché nel 1215 il Concilio Lateranense iv si era pronunciato a favore della dottrina della transustanziazione per spiegare la conversione eucaristica, l’interrogativo cui far fronte – per i filosofi come per i teologi – diviene il seguente: l’inerenza a una sostanza è costitutiva dell’essenza dell’accidente? Obiettivo del presente studio consiste nell’illustrare i rapporti tra metafisica e teologia, nel quadro della riflessione di Duns Scoto relativa alla separabilità dell’accidente dalla propria sostanza nel caso specifico dell’Eucaristia

Abstract
According to a decree of April 1st 1272, the Faculty of Arts of the University of Paris imposed to its own members not to debate or determine any theological issues and it pointed out that if they had found texts or argumentations contrasting the truths of faith, they would have considered them completely false. The analysis on the relationship between substance and accident – a philosophical issue – would not concern faith directly, nevertheless when in 1215 the Fourth Lateran Council stated its support for the doctrine of transubstantiation in order to explain the eucharistic conversion, philosophers and theologians had to face a new question: is inherence to a subject part of the essence of an accident? This paper aims to show the relationship between metaphysics and theology in the context of Duns Scotus’s considerations on the accident’s separability from its own substance in the EucharistI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
